1. Please pouch additional information about the
proposed devolopment of “the new AMPRAME organization” in
order to enable Headquarters to determine if there is any
conflict with the intent of the LNLOFT auction approving
the termination of AMSCROLL.

2. As you may recall, it was originally thoucht that
distribution of economic data might be handled by AMHIM,
after termination of ANSCROLL, possibly by creation of an
AMHIM economic desk staffed by .former AMSCROLL employees,
In any event, neither Headquarters nor LNLOFT anticipated
that the termination of one organization would be followod
by development of another conducting the same operational
activities. On the contrary, our presentation to LNLOFT
emphasized further reductions of organizational support.

3. In addition to a detailed description of the
proposed organization and related administrative and operational
cost estimates, please forward more information abogt plans
for distribution of the new series.

on Soviet offers of ofl to Spain, Great Pritain, Owitzerland, and other free-world

a) CURA! FIRST TERRITURY OF THE AKSRICAS THAT DEPENDS ON THE USSR.

‘The nerve of the Reds, who claim that (uba is tne first "frec" territory of the

Americas. (Cuba is, in fact, the first territory of the Americas that depends al~
most completely on the Soviet Union, eecnomically speaking. Economic dependency
can be illustrated in terms of foreign trade, and Cuba's trade with the Soviet Hlce
has increased as follows? Exports, frem 2.2% in 1959 to 80% in 1966; Imports, from
0.1% in 1959 to 78.6% in 1966, Cubs has also mortgaged her sugar production to the
Soviets, and, as a result from this dependency, has loet her trading power in the

free-world market, thus becoming still more dependent of the Soviet Bloc. No wonder

. Kosygin travelled to Cuba to scold his bearded puppet,

they have been able to slve each and everyone of those preblems.

1 April - 30 June 1967

A. OPERATIONAL HIGHLIGHTS

1, During the quarter under review AMSCROLL continued with
its program to discredit the Cuban regime's cconomic management
(or mismanagement) and to seek to discourage Free World trade
with Cuba, To this cnd AMSCROLL continued publishing its serious
economic ‘studies and comment of the Cuban oconomic area, This
material is mado avatlable to selected firms engaged in inter-

‘ national trade and shipping, to commercial and technical journals,

and to sugar. brokers including certain banks and others interosted
in the sugar trade, ANSCROLL also continued with its radio program

- which is beamed to the Cuban audience and which is increasingly at-

tempting to provide serious. comment upon economic developments in
Cuba or those areas of economic activity outside of Cuba which would
During this quarter
AMSCROLL :received 15 letters from Cuba which compares with 18 re~-
ceived during the previous quarter, The monthly count was: April -

6, May - 5, June - 4,

2. On 30 Aprtl AMSCROLL ceased broadcasting over AMTHIGH.
This change

in station (and a consequent change in time) has perhaps effected
the listenership in Cuba; however, we expect that any unfavorable
developments will be overcome and that this program will at least
re-gain its previous level of listeners, Typical themes included
discussions of -Cuba's housing problem, its actual sugar production
measured against Castro's earlier claims of what the production
would be, breakdowns and stoppages at the Cuban refineries, activ—-
ities with the Soviet Union and the world sugar market, reporting
the progress of the Venezuelan dock workers boycott of ships of

those nations that also trade with Cuba, the fight against bureau-
cracy, and cconomic aspects of the Middle East crisis.

3. A main AMSCROLL cffort continued to be an analysis of the
current sugar crop, As early as 13 February AMSCROLL predicted a
harvest within the range of 6,100,000 and 6,400,000. By 6 May
AMSCROLL was able to refine the harvest estimate from 6,047,000 to
This estimate was further pinpointed to 6,100,000
tons in a release dated 16 June, . These studies received newspaper -
attention and AMSCROLE has received favorable comment from sugar
brokers and other technicians engaged in this business, As events

are turning out, these estimates appear to have been sound ine

Studies which results in their dissemination throughout Latin

America,

4. AMSCROLL. continued with its monthly release which lista
the Free World ships that tradv with Cuba, Both AP and AFP con-

tinued to ‘file this’ information which results in its being pub«

lished in the press and used on radio news broadvasts,

5S. AMSCROLL continued tts mailing program to Cuba, and
during this quarter mailings approximated 5,000 which is tho samo

level as the previous quartor,

B. ADMINISTRATION

6, The amount budgetod for the quarter under review was
$33,500.00 of which $13,332.45 was spent. This significant do-
cline in expenses was in large part duc to the savings caused
by the cancellation of the AMTHIGH radio program and by continuod
attention to economies of operation within ANSCROLL itself,

C. PROBLEMS

7, The Station is not aware of any specific problems having
to do with the. AMSCROLL organization, Mention might be made in
passing of the ever presont morale problom (which is by no moans
limited to AMSCROLL) engendered by increasing economies and re=

strictions in operations,

D, PLANS FOR THE NEXT QUARTER

8. A major effort is being made to revamp the AMSCROLL radio
program to increase its effoctivencss as a reporter of economic
developments of interest to the Cuban listener. Too often these
programs spill over into the field of political reporting or unin-~
formed comment upon developments in economic areas of which tho
script writers are largely ignorant. Our aim is to devise a pro-
gram of economic reporting that will conform to the new guidelines
being developed by the Station for all its radio programs.

UNIDAD MONTULY, ISSUE, NO. 37, May, 1967

Thio issue has bcon almost ontirely devoted to a roprint of I. Andrés Collazo's ata-
temont concerning his axperionce as a CUFLET representative 4n Lendon. Wo havo ren
printed most of the contents of the statenont in the form of a signed article onti.
tlod "INSIDE CUFLET", . .

As is known, Collazo tolls of the "dog fights" that have ricon botween the privatoers
(such as FRANGISTAS) and CUFLET over violations of contracts, bad condition of tho
ships, cto,

He also discussos the declino in froe.world shipping to Cuba and its causes, as woll

ao tho nature and background of tho shippers that participate in tho Cuban trade,

Bosides the abovo, the following is included in this issue:

PAGE 11 _
EDITORIAL: "A COMMUNIST TRUTH": Volsky, the Chief of tho Soviet observing delegation

to the CEPAL mooting dn Caracas, said that "Cuba is the minor daughter of the USSR,
and minor daughtors are pampored", The Russian's insolence has roused the anger of
all wall_born Cubans, Yet, there's a lot of truth in what the Russian said,

Indeod, minor daughters depond on their parents, got overything they need from then,
and are subject to their supreme authority, If the daughter works, she must also turn
a good part of the fruits of her toil over to her parents.

This is what happens with Cuba and the USSR, The Soviets and their satellites sell
Cuba 78.6% of her imports, dictate the policy of the Havana régime, and take 80% of
her exports,

In view of tnis dependence, who can deny that the relation between Cuda and Russia is

that of a minor daughter with respect to her parents? |
The Russian only lied when he spoke of "pampering", Cuba is not pampered by Mother

Russia: she is oppressed, oxploited and corrupted by her,

1. On 27 March 1967, a lettor from Cuba was reccivod at
the postal addross given by the vadio program of AMSCROLL.
Tho letter had been mailod in Habana on 4 March .1967 and tho
contents tncluded threo photos of an unidentified individual
and one photo each of individuals idontified as Reynaldo

*IRSULA Broa and Antonio *ERNANDEZ Fernandez, A note which
was Included stated that henceforth tho keéendor would idontify”
himgelf ag *'Pancrasio", Ho indicated that if it was desired
receipt of his lettor could be mentioned on the AMSCROLL
radio program but that nover should any: mention of the
contents be mentioned as this could reveal his identity to
the DSE. Pancrasio stated his help would not be much but
that his luttors might contain information which could be

of value, Ho wrote that he could not go into detail as

he was unable to spend much time at the typewriter.
Pancrasio concluded by saying the photos of Antonio and
Reynaldo were in the hands of a security agent who had
orders to find them, They had both boen fugitives for a
long time, The other photo (in triplicate) was of a
Canadian citizen whose passport was retained by the DSE and
was reported as lost for an unexplained motive,

2. On 10 April 1967, the message from Pancrasio was
ac nowledgod by radio and he was thanked for his letter and
told to continue his correspondence.

3. On 21 April 1967, a second letter from Pancrasio

“1, On 27 March 1967, a letter from Cuba was received at
the postal address given by the radio preeean of AMSCROLL.
The letter had been mailed in Habana on 4 March 1967 and the
contents included. three Photos of an unidentified individual : oS
‘and one photo each of individuals identified as Reynaldo : “4

*“IRSULA Brea and Antonio *FERNANDEZ Fernandez. A note which

was inclUded stated that henceforth tte sendor would identify

himself as™Parcrasio". He indicated that if it was desired - i :
i _ receipt of his letter could be mentioned on the AMSCROLL Seep tere Pn re ernie cre meapamemnaaneemrss

radio program but that never should any mention of the : . j

contents be mentioned as this could reveal his identity to
the DSE. Pancrasio stated his help would not be much but . '
ve that his letters might contain information which could be co Co
of value. He wrote that he could not go into detail as a .
he was unable to spend much time at the typewriter. . . To
Pancrasio concluded by saying the photos of Antonio and . 7
Reynaldo were in the hands of a security agent who had yoo :
orders to find them. They had both been fugitives for a ma
7 long time. The other photo (in triplicate) was of a _- 7
Canadian citizen whose passport was retained by the DSE and
was reported as lost for an unexplained motive.

2. On 10 April 1967, the message from Pancrasio was
ac nowledged by radio and he was thanked for his letter and
told to continue his correspondence.

3. -On 21 April 1967, a second letter from Pancrasio

ALFONSO, 649 William Street, Key West. Typed on ohe of the
two sheets of paper forwarded by Pancrasio was a note saying
this was lotter number fovr fren= Ponervestin and recuesting ‘ 3,
Guillermo ALFONSO to forward the papers to the same postal .
address which he had previously utilized. Copies of the _ Shoo 4
contents of this letter are attachod under separate cover. ; ‘
The one paper, dated 27 September 1961, appears to be a
list of Costa Ricans who visited Cuba under the auspices of
ICAP, The second paper appears to be a list of Brazilians
who visited Cuba, probably in mid 1960 when Janio QUADROS made ,
a visit to Cuba as part of his presidential campaign in : Sy
. Brazil. . :

4. On 2 May 1967, a JMWAVE Officer visited Guillermo
ALFONSO in an effort to identify Pancrasio and develop
sufficient information to evaluate his information and
determine the extent of his access. ALFONSO claimed he
had no idea as to the identity'of Pancrasio'and was unable \
to suggest possible candidates from his reJatives in Cuba,- oo
former work associates, classmates or neighbors. ALFONSO ‘
had retained the envelop from Cuba which contained Pancrasio's ‘ wT:
second message and a short message to ALFONSO, The note to 5
ALFONSO stated that Pancragio had received ALFONSO‘s name a re :
and address from some unidentified individual and that it was : (7 TS
requested that ALFONSO forward the contents of the letter to
the AMSCROLL address which was enclosed, ALFONSO was
cautioned not to mention anything concerning the matter to rn
anyone, especially to relatives in Cuba. Pancrasio stated
this was his second letter (not fourth as indicated on the
material which was forwarded on by ALFONSO) and that the
- first had been sent direct to the AMSCROLL address. It was
stated this was the first letter by which ALFONSO would .
.gerve as intermediary and that other letters would come fo vf maremememe mines I) eeimaotetanncteaienns A Sm Be exe
at infrequent intervals. Pancrasio had decided to use an |
intermediary address as the AMSCROLL address was too well
known. Pancrasio concluded his note by saying that he
preferred to remain anonymous and that he would be remaining
in Cuba for two more years. In addition to the above cited
message, the letter to ALFONSO contained a calling card with
the name Dr_ Luc B. INNOCENT, President of the Haitian
Revolutionary Movement. On the back of the card was typed in
Spanish “without comment",

1962, is a Haitian terrorist, Fidelista, who was planning
to enter Panama from Columbia. .

6. ALFONSO was instructed to forward any mail received
from Pancrasio in an expeditious manner and JMWAVE will
follow any leads obtained which might help to identify
Pancrasio in order to develop him into a more productive
source of information.

Relations Between Cuba and the Soviet Union: How Much lepen-

an original and one copy of the study in English and an original _. Joo. .... ec croneeny

addressee, This is an AHSCROLL prepared study; the author is
AMPRAME-.2 in collaboration with AMNSWAKE41, It was prepared in _
response to references A and B, ,

2. We have limited this study to an attempt to prove
statistically the very rapid rise of Cuban economic dependency
upon the Soviet Union, We have intentionally avoided editorial-
izing as the facts speak for themselves; thus we have drawn no
political conclusions, nor have we attempted to establish that
this economic dependency carries with it an implicit policy
control on the part of the Soviets (partly because policy control
does not necessarily follow and, in any event, the reader is free
to draw his own conclusions),

3. If it does not run counter to Station Santiago's plans,
we suggest that ANSCROLL — a JMNWAVE asset that studies and
comments upon the Cuban economic scene—-reproduce this study

CUBA AND THE SOVIET UNTON: HOW MUCH DEPENDENCY?

Cuba's dependency on the Soviet Union is known, The question iss
3 pendency? In order to arrive at some conclusion we have chosen Cuba's foreign trade
statistics for the 1959-1966 period.

We will work under the following economic assumptions: Economic dependency of one

° country on the other can be indicated to a considerable extent by their trade as this

wee

- indicates the need one country has of the other as a market for its exports and as

a@ supplier for its imports.

. What we will do is to analyze the Cuban Trade Balance for the 1959-1966 period. #

1) According to the assumption we established regarding trade dependency, we can
Ba™ spnmerenanenae 22Y. that during 1959 Cuba was dependent upon the Free World for its markets as total
: ~ trade value for that year amounted to $ 1,305,700,C00 and trade value with the Free
World represented $ 1,289,000,000 (or 98.8% of the total trade).
? ' Broken down inte exports and imports we see that in 1959 Cubari exports totaled

$ 637,700,000 while total imports were $ 688,000,000. Thus, the trade balance showed

a $ 26,500,000 deficit, which was a reflection of the trend started in 1958 due te

* Every figure in this paper will be given in U.S. dollars unless otherwise

indicated. The sources for the ficures used throughout the analysis, the

‘table, and charts were: “The Economist", "The New York Times", UN"s Econo-
mic Reports on Latin America, "Cuba Comercio Exterior" magazine, “Visidn"

magazine, “US News & World Report", and The Economist Intelligence Unit's

Cuba was now dependent, economically, upon the Communist World, especially the
Soviet Union. <The fact that little hard currency was obtained from its new trade part~
mers further conm! fed Cuba*s economy to the Communist Bloc. | ;
4) In 1962, the trend continued, Total trade was $ 1,257,900,000, of which ,
a $ 1,031,000,000 (82.1%) was with the Communist Bloc and only $ 226,000,000 (17.9%)
De, , with Free World countries. ‘,
Another phenomenon appeared during 1962, The Soviets, who had been careful “not
to press Cuba during 19€0 with regards to their trade balance (which was favorable to
‘Cuba by $ 31,000,000), were shrewd enough to close the gap during 1961, The balance
was favorable to Cuba by $ 11,200, 000, 3

with the Communist countries, Comoounding this is the fact that by 1962 Cuba had Spent ;

5) Two interesting developments occured in 1963, First of all, total trade with
the Communist countries maintained the 1962 level ($ 1,031,000,000 in 1962 and
: e

$ 1,054,900,000 in 1963), ,But, the Soviet Union tightened the grip by increasing its

exports ‘to Cuba to $ 688,900,000 (in 1962 they represented $ 629,000,000), while Cuban Z
exports to the Communist Bloc decreased to $ 366,000,000 (in 1962 they represented ;
$ 402,000,000), Thus, the imbalance for Cuba increased to $ 322,900,000 (in 1962 it

~ was $ 227,000,000). - Lo : ‘

At the same time, Cuba attempted an approach to the Free World markets by taking

advantage of an increase in the price of sugar in the world market (sugar averaged

So, the Soviets continued in contro] as trade vith the Communist countries re-

*

presented more than three quarters of Cuba"s total trade for that year. The sugar
production had already been mortaaged, the sugar market was depressed, and Cuba was

‘ more and more dependent upen the Soviet Union.

x ° 8) Then came 1966. Suoar prices decreased to an average of 1.86 cts. per pound,

1965 to $ 65,000,000 in 1966.

FIRST: Cuba is economically dependent upon the Soviet Union.
SECOND: This dependency is increasing. It has risen from 14¢2% in 1959 to 19.2% t

- B) Cuba has mortgaged * ‘its ‘sugar production to the Soviet Union, , a . . ;

B) Cuba has exhausted itechare currency reserves. While an exict tibre is,

‘not available we estimated it to be ‘about $ 20,000, C00, in December 1964,

As before, the campaign was conducted by the AHSC70i.1, radio
program and by serious economic studies and coment thet vere
provided its mailing list of sugar brokers, selected firms
engage. in international trade and shipping, and commercial and
technical journals. The Statioa continues to be encouraged by
| evidence of increased acceptance of the AMSCfOL! efforts. For

“4 example, AMSCROLL received eighteen letters from Cuba during this

: quarter, all of which were in direct response to the radio progran.
wx+ ¢{acwmcinee- Of these, twelve were received in March which represents the

7 highest monthly total since initiating the program. This compares
ee with eleven the previous quarter and only three in the corresponding

i quarter of 1969. In January, the Vice President of the Association

>| of Sugar Producers of Puerto Rico called upon the AMSCHO:).

“4 offices to request AMSCAOLL’s assistance in preparing a chapter
on Cuban sugar production preblems to be included in a book this
person is writing. AMSCROLL received requests from four universi-
ties or colleges requesting written mteriai, from a graduate
Student preparing a thesis on the lot of the Cuban peasant, from
the U.8, Army Special Warfare School iibrary, and others. The
wire services, particularly Associated Press and Agence France

2. The ANSCROLL radio program continued as reported for the
last quarter--daily except Sunday for ten minutes over ANTHIGH..
In addition, on 1 January AMSCROLL began a thirteen minute
program each Sunday on AMTHIGH. These programs are in large part
eonfined to subjects of an economic nature with the time on
Sunday devoted to an in-depth analysis of what has occurred in
this area since the previous Sunday. Typical themes hit through-. |

Castro's "San Andres' speech of 28 Jznuary, an unfavorable -: a
balance of trade with Spain of $30,000,000, significance of Soviet :

Whonever possible a particular effort was made to relate
developments in China to present or possible developments in
Cuba. The difficulties of the Chinese economy provided
examples to which a Cuban "twist' could be put; e.g., the
Chinese and Cuban economic failures demonstrate the failure of
applied communism in the economic area.

3. AMSCROLL is continuing its analysis of the current
Bugar crop. Its releases on this subject continue to generate
interest ard the Station has seen coverage in The Miami Rerald,
El Universal (of Caracas), The Times of The Americas, and
Diario Las Americas. ‘The AMSCROLIE releases on Free ¥Yorld
shipping to Cuba were picked up by both AP and AFP and were
published in the newspapers listed in the previous sentence as
well as The lLiontreal Star. The AMH IB Bulletin also carries
the bulk of these releases and we cin therefore presume coverage
of at least some of this information in Jotin America. An
interesting study was an analysis of British/Cuban trade which

u

of the bargain; this story was filed by AFP as was a story of
the poor quality of molasses being soid by the Cubans to British
firms. Finally, AMSCNOLL continued to get mileage from the
Damlier-Benz story by reporting that this German firm has finally

further reduced scale. During the quarter about 5,000 were -
mailed versus 5,600 during the previous quarter. e count a

economic studies to places other than Cuba.

5. A recent development which my have an interesting —, .
operational potential was a telephone call to AMSCROLL from am)
Czarnikow-Rionda, the New York sugar brokers, which was
triggered by an AHSCROLL "case study" of the problems being
faced by a Cuban sugar mill, The firm told AMSCROLL that if has
for some time suspected Cuban sugar production figures and Lo
wondered if AMSCROLL had any such suspicions. AMSCROLL (through | t ..
AMPRAME-1) has vritten to say it would be most interested in pe
following any leads from Czarnikcow-fRionda that could support a
conclusion that Cuban production figures are false, which is. — ;
where this matter now lies. The officials of Czarnikow-Rionda “ ;
are well known to AMSCROLL and we shall be interested in seeing Jo _
what the firm developes for AMSCROLL, : .

. 1. AMMOF maintained contact with party leaders throughout . tye
_,.. the hemisphere during the quarter. The wajority of the corres- -
pondence was handled by AHCRIG/1, the leader of the youth wing,
who was informed by the JUDCA secretary-general, both during his
October visit and in subsequent correspondence, that the AMMOP
. youth wing was performing effective work and that a JUDCA study
pees enigene nee OB AMHOP activities would be forthcoming. The JUDCA secretary~

general favors the incorporation of the AHIOF youth sector into
his organization.

yee 2. ANMOP youth published two bulletins on their activities
- glong with an interesting summary on the activities of their ow
counterperts in other countries, which was mailed to a list of ,
contact# and correspondents. Several party officials in other
‘ countries have requested to be placed on the AMMOF mailing lists,
‘ an indication that AMMOP is becoming more widely recognized as a
representative political movement.

3. The AMBOP youth group has also orgenized a series of
seminars which sttracted from 30-35 participants during the quer-
ter. The purpose, in addition to offering discussions on such .
subjects as politics, labor and agriculture, was. to promote more : :
group unity and to draw new sources of talent. .

A. OPERATIONAL HIGHLIGHTS

1. The AMENOT organization continued during the quarter

under review with its program of assisting Cuban merchant :

> mariners who have defected from their service. ‘Fifteen diff- Hl

erent cases were handled during this period which included :

five resettlement cases in areas other than JHWAVE, Billets

at sea were found for two more--one as a first mate and one as :

a third mate. The remaining eigit received assistance in obtaime ot nme,

co sate cone meni: SBE employment or what might be called administrative aid-assis- ‘ :

tance in obtaining social security numbers, etc. :

~ 2. Processing continued for those interested in employment coh wre
ee --.- by the Military Sea Transport Service (HSTS). Progress in -
. . obtaining the necessary U.8. Coast Guard certification is siow
and of the four that applied for this during the previous quarter
_ only two hed received the certificationhy the end of the current
en quarter. During this quarter two more former Cubar merchant
. . officers sought through AMKNOT this certification as they expressed :
| interest in MSTS employment. The current status is: In process--6;— i
. _ Coast Guard certifications received--2; physical examinations given :
. * (and passed)--4, In addition, applications for employment together :
0 - with the Coast Guard certifications and completed physical examin- oo
. ation forms were forwarded 28 December to the cover company in
Baltimore for 2, The remainder will be forwarded as the Coast
‘Guard certifications are received.

B, ADMINISTRATION d
4. The AMKNOT organization remains constituted as reported aa
in the previous Cuarterly Report. However, in December AMASK-1 3
was offered a permanent position as personnel director of a local 3
shoe company that employs some four hundred people. His starting i 4

salary will be $475.00 per month which will be iacreased rfter
the first three months and tncreased again after the second three
months. The Station concurred with AMASE-1 that he accept. for :
these reasons: (1) The AMKNOT position is uot permanent, (2) ;
it appears that AMASK-1 will be terminated when AMKNOT ita closed, . *
(8) this position should solve AMASK-1's personal financial prob-

lems, and (4) AMASK-1 has agreed to remain aa chairman of AMKNOT

without salary and to continue to lend his name to the organization.

The Station expects to replace AMASK-] with AMPOLISH-1 who appears
qualified to handle the hand-holding and housekeeping aspects of : :
AMKNOT. AMPOLISH-1 is presently employed by a local automobile . 4

dealer and is able to take the necessary time off to handle the

AMKNOT matters. We see three advantages to this development:

(1) The Station will be spared a possible disposal situation when 00g rmgmennenn
—ThRH acento AMENOT is closed (it has been made clear to AMPOLISH-1 that this :
is a temporary assignment that at the most will last for a few
months), (2) We have offered AMPOLISH-1 $200.00 per month versus
$320.00 for AMASK-1, and (3) AMASK-} should be in an excellent
position to offer at least temporary employment in the shce fac~
tory to mariners to come.

.

‘

5. An estimated total of $2,505.00 was spent during this ue
quarter. This amount represents AMASK~-1's salary and allowances,
i. office expenses, end English instruction for those seeking MSTS
. employment. Expenses by month were: October, $855.00; November,

7 $825.00; and December (estimated), $825.00. The allotment for
this activity for the quarter was $3,000.00.

(Cc. PROBLEMS

6. The chief problem of the period was caused by the antics
of Raul CUINTANA Ruiz who jumped ship in New Orleans after a run~ ‘
in with the ship's captain and after difficulties with the Immi- :
gration and Naturalization Service over the lack of proper documen- :
tation to re-enter the country. CUINTANA has been resettled in :
California, though we may not have heard the last from him; AMASK~1 ot
recently received a letter from QUINTANA which said that CUINTANA : a
was about to sue the shipping Jine that had employed him for back
galary and loss of personal effects that QUINTANA claims the captain
had locked up. AMASK-1 was advised to ignore the letter in view .
i: .)).)0 of the difficulties already causec and in view of his potential for
ae further trouble (see paragraphs 2 and 3 of JMWAVE-3990).

4. Radio ~ The weekly AMBASAL radio programs were carried
by JHHOPE and tapes of each program were sent to SWBULL/1 for .
re-breadcast. The content of these programs was in line with :
the juridical nature of the AMBASAL organization, although
editorial comment was frequently made on current themes not
Specifically related to the legal field.

B. ADYINISTRATION

S. The 1967 fiscal year budget for AMBASAL is $43,000.00. j
Ona quarterly basis the allotted figure is $10,750.00. During
- this quarter AMBASAL expenses amounted to $11,760.72, a total
of $1,010.72 in excess of the allotted figure. Of the overall
‘quarterly expenses of $11,760.72, agent salaries accounted for
$7,000.00, radio expenses amounted to $1,901.72 and $2,859.00 :
was spent on printed propaganda, operational travel, and nmiscel-
laneous office expenses. Total operational expenses for the
first six months of FY 1967 were $23,987.28, an excess of $2,487.28
over the $21, 500. 00 allocated for the first half of the fiscal foe met fe patttnm
csoneremewagsempvenstaita-~ FOAL »

* @, PROBLEMS

mh 6. Termination of the principal agent may be difficult.

.-Consideration is being given to the possible future use of

_. AMBASAL/1 as a singleton agent. The alternative is to assist bin
‘in finding suitable employment; a difficult task given his: age ;
(42), complete lack of English, and aspects of his personality i
and character. ;

7. We do not anticipate any other probleus relative to
the termination of this operation. The AMBASAL newsletters sent :
to Cuba were stopped with the October issue and the monthly '
bulletin with the November issue, Four of the AMBASAL personnel
were terminated 31 December and the radio programs were stopped '
in Decenber.

D, PLANS FOR THE NEXT QUARTER i LO

6. Three AMBASAL employees will be terminated effective ;
31 January 1967 and the AMBASAL office will be closed during that ~ i
month. It is planned to permit AMBASAL/1 to retain some of the i
equipment now in his office to encourage him in his plans. to con- :
tinue to operate on a scaled-down, independent basis. Wq@ will . toot
continue to pay a monthly salary to AMBASAL/1 through Mat h 1967
whije attempting to-‘solve his personal situation discussed in the
preceding section. - '

5. During the second quarter of FY 67 the AMLIRA organization : 7
expended $17,300 and had income of some $600 from news stand sales ,

because the final December figures sre not recorded at this : j

$16,700) exceeds the budgeted amount by approximately $400. However, — !
this overage Will be absorbed in further budgetary cutbacks during
the next reporting period.

coments on the degraded role of vwozen in the Communist state compared
with that in the free world; reference to the myth of Communist unity
&@s revesled by the split between the ChiGoms and the USSR; mention of
the possibility that Cubans will be sent to North Viet Nam tO fight

and editorial comment on the visit of Faul CASTRO and President . :

B, ADMINISTRATION

5. During the second quarter of FY-67 there were expendi-~
tures of approximately $19,000 by the AMSTRUT=2 activity. This
figure includes an estimate for the month of December becaure
the final figures Lave not been received at this writing. The
budgeted amount for AMSTRUT=-2 for the quarter is $24,600 and there
is an excess of budget authorization over expenditures of approxi-
mately $5000, This figure, however, gives an unreal budgetary
picture of the AMSTRUT=2 activity. This $5000 will remain as a
‘part of the budget allotment and may well be expended in a flurry
of AMSTRUT-2 travel, publication activity and/or promotion during

- tha next quarter. In other words the excess docs not represent
budget. "fat" since the bulk of tne AHSTRUT-2 expenses are not

figured as month to month constants but obligated asthe operational
situation demands,

6. During Becember AMSTRUT-2 moved into a amaller house with _
@ lower rent whici wiii mean a aaving of §100 per month. In

addition, it is anticipated that a further saving will be realised
in maintenance and upkeep costs.

eee

C. PROBLEMS oe : Sn

7. The basic agent-handling preblem presented by AMSTRUT-2's
mercurial disposition, excessive generosity and understandable
emotional approach to the role which mst be played before the pub=
lic still exists. However, it seems to have lessened somewhat as
AMSTRUT-2 gains confidence in the language and in dealings with the
public, There is little question that ea contributing factor to the
lessening of this problem is the reliance placed by AMSTRUT-2 on
AMLYRIC~-1 who servee as business advisor, buffer and hand-holder,

8, The problem of projecting the image of the AMSTRUT-2 Founda-
tion as an independent charitable organization remains, The appli-
cation for tax exempt status to the state of registry is in the works

_ end when this application is approved it ia likely that there will be
an increase of private donations which, because of the new atetus, will

be tax deductible, The problem iies in the dilatory behavior of the
state suthorities, .

® AHNSTRUT-2 continues to be attractive to certain extremist
politicsi groups whose patriotic claims of objectives would often
‘eppear to parallel those of AMSTRUT=-2 and the Cuban exile community
as ae whole, AMSTRUT-2 has not always been able to sort out the "geod
guys” from the “bad guys” and the problem lies in fending off these
extremist groups and preventing them from exploiting AHSTRUT-2 for
partigan political ends,

D, PLANS FOR NEXT QUARTER

16, AMLYRIC-l has been in negotiation with a group of
organizetions at Hurvard University which wish to sponsor an
AMSTRUT-2 appearance there, The tentative plan at this writing

is for AMSTRUT-2 to appear during the first part of calendar
1967.

11, The ghost-written AMSTRUT<2 book on ANTHUG-1] should be
ready for firat reading at least sometime during the next quarter,

12. It is planned to have AMSTRUT<-2 prepare a rebuttal
(probably to be ghost-written by AMLYRIC-1) to the interview with

‘Pidel CASTRO which appeared in the January issue of Playboy maga-

zine.

13. Further speaking engagements and tours by AMSTRUT-2 are

being planned for the next reporting period. It is also planned

that, with the official approval of the tax-exempt status of the
Foundation, an extensive fund rasing campaign will be launched to
provide working capital and funding cover for operational activie
ties as vell as humanitarian and social welfare programs in conso=
nance with the AMSTRUT-2 Foundation charter,

Last week we wrote you few notes regarding illegal Cuban trading
also that the Greek authorities , no doubt through Usa pressure (aT LAST),
are now investigating... neneg of shins and Owners who have been trading

‘with Cuba illegally since 1953. Thers is uow quite a lot of propscanda
going on thet these investigations will be expedited tnrouga the Aurbour

. Lasters in Greecs, and Consular authorities in ports outside Greece.

‘* nis news is of course to please USa, and to send to sleop those who

“** pefors nothing much will be done, except some isolated, probably,cases,

mostly of small Owners , to just please Usa etc., In fact, nothing will
be done, because the Cree: Authorities

Franbistas would stop trading. He has not. Waly recently when a group
of loyal and lawful Greek Ovners took the matter to Greex Parliament,
the U.S.A, Authorities appeared tc wake up and demanded trat the tlinister
of Foreign Affairs should ask the Minister of tercantile Marine. to
produce a list of Ovners still trading with Cuba. Yow come that a Greek
Mirister of Mercantile Marine should have a list, a very long list, of
Greek shins still trading with Cuba, and yet he had done notains about
to stop the tllegal trading, in contravention of his laws. Few months
ago, few smcll Owners, the small fish of course, were asked to show where
. their ships had deen tratins, knowing of course they had been tracing with
wa Cubs. The local Courts were still " making enquiries". Nothing :-as done
natuarally about Frangistas, whoek is responsible for about 90% of the
whole movements, How can he be prosecuted , bg his purtners , since it
. : is more than obvious and clear that wnatever he doss has tne blessing of
~ the Authorities, both in Greece and in Lebanon. Frangistas has been
i openly boasting, and he has proved his point, that the laws of Greece and
Lebanon, cnlyepply to ordinary individuals, not to HIit. we do not know
what the biinister's list is, but we shall not be: surprised if thas list

contains only a fraction of his movements, and he will no doubt say that |

awe naintt veweihe has not fixed any ship at all sincetne law was passed in 1963 but that
his contract was signed before the lew. Cf course he will. Any contact

can be faked and back~dated, with the connivange of the Charterers.

The only contrect Frangiteas had was with the Russians and the Russians

never make contracts for more than one year. He bas signed sever2

.eccntracts with the kussians since 1963. But let us forget about the

Russians for a moment. Did he also have iiANY years contracts ‘with -

the Poles , with the HMurgarians, the Chechoslovakians, 3oulgarians ,

the Germans, the Chinese, tha Syrians, the French, the Dutch, all
Scandinuvians , etc.,

All the sugar in the ‘/orld, and hunzreds of ships
would not be entzh +9 cover these, had there been contracts. No, all

his cargoes to Cuba and from Cuba (vith pos-itly few cargoes with thse
Russians carried latest few months after the lav) were contracted after
the lav, and vere fixed in the open markets a cargo or two or three at a
time, either direct withthe countries concerned or via London, and his
ships have appeared in lreighs lists on the day they were fixed, in
competition with other Owners and flags. If you or the USan Authorities
>. were to aposint a reputable Chartering Sroker in London, he would tell
you exactly upon which date, what quantity, what destination. what rate
of. freight, each cargu was contracted. w/hy do not you ask the Greer and
Lebanon aAxthoritbes to demand that h- priduces a list of nis 36 vessels
with all their logbooks, the charter parties, the timesheets, the vfreignt
statements, and banding recéints and let all these be examined dy the
London Broxer , not the Greek or Lebanon Authorities who cover his
dilegal trading. And what about the Cubeas. Did Frangistas also have :
very longs contracts with the Cubans, signed before the law in I965, ard
are still valid and unexpired? Is tnis why Frangistas was in Havana at
-at end of last year, end again beginning of this year, when ne fixed six
liberties on timecharter for 9) I2 KMEKAK months, comiencing early in .
1966, an? did he also fix the EFTHYCHIA for three years timechurter with j
te the Cubans, @:ring nig visit in Havana as stated above, before the law
"was passed in 1963, bearing in mind that the vessel was built by the :
i Russiang at the end of 1965? Do you know that *rangistas is till nego- : . a
.* ° tiating with the Cubans, and Hussians for the fixing of the 35 further :
ships the-hussians will be buildings fir him. Do you Know that next
January, the nev sugar season starts, and that he already is in toucn

with private Charterers, not the Russians or Cubans, for the fixing of
his older tonnage , the Ljberties? Thie takes place at a tima that
Greek and possibly Lebanon Authorities are supposed to be prosecuting him
for his past sing. This is how much notice he takes of the Authorities,
Dozens of Masters, Officers etc., intluding Frangistas are supposed to
be in prison, to have paié huge fines, ani to have lost their flags,

in uecordance withe the povisions of the law. To our knowledge no one

has been imprisoned, no one has paid fines, no flag has been withdrawn,
end any time you want Frangistas do not look f-r hin in his office. He
will not be.there. He has no time for office, he is too busy with the
Authoriti3s.in Athens or Lebanon. ‘/ell , no one could ever imagine

that the USA Authorities would continue to bataxen for a ride , and to
continue giving their 3id to countries which use Ait against then. May

be thig, is the American Policy, who knows. The USA did in fect say
recently that unless Cuban trading is stopped, they would stop their aid.
Firstly , is this enough, doe2z it mean they do not mind for trading so
far, so long as furth2r trading is stonp2d, hich will clear up and
justify all Frangistas oast sins? And secondly, we are certain , Frangi-
stas, will find the way, te continue trading. iho is to stop him. The
Ameticans obviously cannot , the Greeks and Lebanese will not, therefore
the Show g2e3 on. which means OXIMs DOES PAY, and stupid those who think
othervise. As before, it is réretted that we nave to write to you again
anonymously, and hope you forgive us. May be in your usual very inforna-

_CUBAN TRADING

We expected by now some action from your end or from the American
‘Authorities to whom we had sent our previous copied communication to
you(Washington,Foreign Ministry, and U.S.A, Embassy,London), but regret
that, at least to our knowledgs, no action has been taken yet, and we
assume this by virtue of the fact that the ships we mentioned previously
‘Just carry on the voyages for which have been fixed, and their Owners
openly negotiate further similar business from cuba , as most of the
trade to Cuba is presently done by Red flag ships. However, we wupplement

we wrote you fer dtys ago about the illegal cuban trading ané we now i

enclose herevith _eutting fron to¢ays , 5th November 1965, Pirseus Newspaper 4

* NapDILIA 2X%2RUSS " from whicn you will observe that action is now being :

taken ( three years too late and after millions of ons of cargo has been 3

carried to and fron Cuba) againsS Cvners, Captains etc., of sreek ships.
The Greek inistry of Hfercantile Marine are elso instructing port Autho-
rities to enquire and investigate wnicao ships traded witn Cuba since 1963.
You see , until now , or even now, the Ministry did not know... and now
they will try to find out. No doubt owing to some half haarted pressure by ,
the USA authorities , the Greek authorities are at last compelled to at i
.e least show that they are trying to finfl out , now , waich ships traded, - :
: algo no doubt they will find some ships which traded and will prosecute
the Captains and the Owners, and perhaps carry out some sort of punishnent
and naturally it will be ths small and unimportant Owners they will trace.
The biz and influential will not even ba tfaced. If sre nos to be traced
like Frengistas, they wlll find all necessary excuses and reasons for
not prosecuting. fhe job for enquiring , prosecuting, and purishing the
. offencers is left with trose with whose connivance and knowledge trading
. continued since 1953, and still continuss, so anzone can ine wgine, what
: kind of a Jod they ALY do, ‘/e wonder why no enquiries ware made durinz
: 1963, 1964 , I9fS, sirply occause enquiries were not necesszry. You do a cveenades mama cennrsn
not enquire about something you already know, The latest excuse of Pran- :
-gistas, as we think yon already know, cones throigh his brother, who is
a Professor in Salonica University, that the law prohibiting Subsn trading
was Unconstitutional. This joxe was as good as any, even better than the
. one edout his false or fake contracts and charter parties. | His other brother
| Hea - | who is the real tafluence with the Russians and is a timber mercaant having
the monopoly ofsall Russian timber inmoorts into Greece and soue fruits
from Greede to Russia,’ is the one who helped to secure she builcing in
Russia of some 55 large liners and bulk carriers plus a huge fish trawlirs
fleet, in exchange for Greek products, , and port payment i4 cash fren the
vast profits they made out of their 35° seconi zane liberty vessels in
Cuban trading. zven in this respect, do not forget that this pvrivilege
of builcing these fleets( and we understand further building contracts
are cooking) vas only given to the Frangistas clique by the Greek and
Russian Authorities ,and not to any sther Greek Omer. No the UsA Authori-
ties really think that the Greek Authorities ( and in a smaller degree
the Lebanon authorities) +2111 prosecute Frangistas, and even if they do,
for eyewesh , they will find him guilty? You will see that nothing will
heppen, What we now have to say, ar the only solution, may seem unpatriotic,
but it is the only way to stop this rot. This is that the UsA should dis-

__ CUBAN TRADING
Your circulars regarding, Cuban affairs and trading contain useful
information but it seems that neither you nor the American Authorities |
are well informed. You know that, through American pressure, the Greek
4 ' Government banned,several years ago, all trading with Cuba for Greek flag
vessels, except few which were on timecharter and were allowed to run +
their charters, w.ich finished a very long tine ago. Similarly, the Lebano
Gbvernment banned all trading with Cuba for Lebanon vessels, fe: months
ago, and only allow, subject special licence, their ships to carry goods
from and and to countries of the Arab League. Both countries passed laws .
to this effect, and both state that infringement 68 the law carries very
heavy fines against the Ovmers and Masters, and withdraval of the flag.
That is what the laws say, but what is actually happening is another
matter, Greek and Lebanon flag vessels have continued, since banning,
to be fixed, heave carried and are carrying cargoes, through 4 nunber of
“ Qwners, such ag Yrankistas( Franco Shipping Co, of Lisbon and Athens,
. .per Purvis shipping Co, London, their U.K. Agents), bYwikk owning about
35 Greek and Lebanon flag Liberties and sinilar vessels, also Viassopoulo,
Livanos, etc., also owning a great nunmber of ships with these flags.
They simply say they do not care a dagn about the ban, and continue to 4
making fortunes in the Cuban trading, the reason being that as nost at neem me ons cetfsremeten
ada wee eo Obher law abiding Owners with these flags do not go to Cuba, the market if
a remains wide open for these people. They do not even try to hide, they
just fix their ships, tostly in the Baltic xchange, London, and Athens,
but also direct with Charterers in Poland, iiungary, Houlrgaria, ‘ tae
se kussia, etc. and with Paris, and Geneve, The Governments of Greece and
: Lebanon, who made the laws, just look on, doing nothing about it, and
this means that the laws were made, for paper value only. Some of these
Owners fix their ships by name and flag, others just fix a contract
to be carried by ships, to be nominated later, and later they nominete
greek and Lebanon ships. Only the last few days, the following were fixed
on the Loncon market: . Frankistas, 50.000 tons sugar from Cuba to England
: for sugar Merchants Tate and Lyle, London, to be carried in 2 or 3 months,
: and Frankistas has already nominated the NICCLAOS F.(Greek flag) and
San Spyridon (Lebanon flag), for 20.000 tons and the remaining 30.000
tons are being nominated also for Greek and Lebanon flag ships.The sane
a Qwner just also fixed one cargo for Kalmo(Sweden), and one to Gdyhbia,
ar Poland, He is presently negotiating several other cargoes, fr his
oy large Greek and lebanon flag ships, wth the aforementioned cancerns,
: including another contract with D' Enree of Paris, via Geneve.
3 The AIS GIANNIS (Lebanon) was fixed with Dreyfus, Landon , few days
a ago, to carry a cargo of beans from Vera Craz and Tampico to Cuba, and
after for sugar to Europe . Another concern trading with Cuba is
Tsavliris of London and Athens ,but this firm is not trading with Greak
Lebanon flag ships. :
The World thinks that you and American Athorities know all that goes on
in Cuba. If so, it means that neither you nor Anerican Authorities know
and do not mind such trading with Greek and Lebano ships if they know.
We have given you som? details of th: latest fixtures. You and American
Authorities can check up without any thouble and when they verify the F
correctness, they will no Wonbt protest immediately to the respective j
Governments, ask them to stop immediately the carriage of these cargoes
and punish their Owners etc., &s per their laws, and demand log books, :
-freight accounts, etc to verify all past trading, a tremendous one. If ;
they Bex’ or you, do not do anything .out it, it will mean that both i
you and American Government knew and know about this illegal trading and H
do not mind, in which case, we can more than essure you, that within the .

eo next fev! weeks, the so far law abiding Ormers of Creek ond Lebanon flag

reason thet they will feel that they are breaking no laws, since they
who asked the Covernments of Greece and Lebanon to pass the laws, do

oh not mind if they ere not complied with. It remains,however , a great
nystaery, bec2zuse we cannot beleve that the Anerican Authorities do not
know about this trading and why they have not protested to the Lebanon

os and Gre~k Governments,and if they do not know, then there is sonething

a very drastically wrong with their Intellig-nce. ‘

: Fransistas assured then they have nothing to worry about, the prohibi- i

also-reminéed them that these investikations took place before,but 211
their cargoes were carried just the same, and numerous charters were

fixed at various intervals by Srangistas throush them, througn Kussia,

From the economic point of view C-stro's esrrunint véging is vel on the pe
‘yoad to reaching 2 climax after having cuffered one etonomie set-back after an-
other. - Today Cuba's. leading cash crop, evgir, can be termed a failure in the:
serise that due to 4 surker of factors and particularly mismanagement: in Cuba
plus the. low world price, it ie unible to eupport the Cuban economy, .The second ©
Lo - toet important cash.crop, tobacco, -similerly has been so mismnaged that today
se _ £t da an uliimportant eerner of eritteally needed foreign exchange,

This economic cheos hes foreed the Cuban régime to increasingly desperate .
measures in order merely to eurvive, For example, meat, tobacco, eggs, fruit,
_ . vegetables, coffee, preserves, and shoes are some of the products that. today are
eee exported from Cuba in an attempt to earn the hard currency to purchase heavy

machinery, locomotives, fishing boats, ani all the rest necessary to mintain '

any semblance of an economy. 4n unfortunate reeult of this is that today there :
is a sorious shortage of the proper foods throurhout all of Cuba. There is raq-'
tioning. The people have insufficient rice. Even citrus fruits have had to be
rationed, Milk iz in critically short eupply. There are not enough shoes to go
around. Coffee, long considered a necessity by the people, is sometimes unob-
tainable and is always in ehort supply. Our beer, famous for years, is now hard-
ly drinkable when it 1s available. These problems, which before the communist
régime vere totally ucihowm to Cuba, wcre troucht painfully home to me each time
I returned to Havana fron my post in London.

e For example, I was in Havana in July after hurricane Ym hit Nestern: Cuba ~
last June, a. numbér of building? and houses find to. be. repaired all over. the
‘city of'Hsvarm. Debris from.derolitions and subsequent ~constructions was piled
on the stréets, Time passed,: bit-the streets were still-full of debris that gave.
- nthe Sity - the looks‘ ofa bonber * targst” “thts caused considerable disgust among :

the population “of Havana,

nother ‘example 4s - that ‘the food + quota on the ration book is largely a.
"paper" ‘reality. What I mean is that the food on the book is rarely available,
and whole moriths pass without any meat, lard, oii, rice, beans, being distrib--
uted. At this precise time, in Havana, there are no seasoning ingredients avail-
able to the consumer. When the product is available again, the meager book
quota is what each one gets, without any compensation for the time during which -

be could not even get that,

As a result of this, queues are longer every day, with people standing ih
line since the early morning hours to mike sure that they von't be left ‘out. © L,
There are often fights and ‘even minor riots at the queues on account of the ir :

ritation that this situation causes.

Also T have seén that “the régime ds opening rony new 4 restaurants, alleged-

what they seck 1s. to extract money from circulation, as the prices at these new
places are éxtraordinarily high. Hence, only the members of the ruling “new

Castro's. stand to that respect has been to boycott and undermine such efforts,

This his been clearly reflected in Castro's refusal to participate in the

The “blews received ‘by Cuba's sugar economy from the hurricanes and droughte

are nothing compared te the damage caused by the improvisation ‘and incompetency :

of those who today mlamanage our country's affairs. The shortage of manpower
for cutting the cane, the enlistment of inexperienced’ "volunteer" cané cutters,

the failure of. .combine mchines from the -USSA, and the deteriorating situation ,

in the transportation of the cane crown the existing economic anarchy. '

The régime has been committed by Castro to produce 10,000,000 tons of sugar _

in 1970, which figure sugar economists in and out of Cuba agree is most unlikely
However, the attempt to'reach this goal is resulting in activities that amount
to economle suicide. Cuba 4s buying generators in England costing more than ons
milion dollars which will be used to provide power for the "Centros de Acopio®
(reception centers). The concept of these centers was tried many years age in

Cne might conclude a discussion of Cubats sugar problems with the observa~
tion that nevar before in Cuba's economic history has so mch discussion, 60
many speeches, and so mich activity resulted in such a loss of effectiveness.

régime took control. of it.

Leaf tobaeco production has declined by over 30% comparing the 1965 ‘Tigure
(32,000 H.7,) with the traditional production of over 45,0CO M.T, yearly, The-
best tobacco fields of tho famed Vuelta ‘tajo zone, which gave the best wrapper
in the vorld, have experienced a sharp decline of over 706 in yield and quality, .

due to Jack of fertilizers and the necessary care. -

About 20% of the plantations are affected by tho bug, as the fields and
curing sheds are not ‘sprayed. The INR\ policy. of vory low prices paid and lack
of incentives given to the most efficient producers has forced the producers to
divert their lands: to less risky and nore profitable crops, This is particular-
ly true. of the Remedios and Cabaigudn zones, Peasants trained in tobacco grow=
ing have. been absorbéd - by cane growing areas in order to remedy the critical
minpover situation in the latter, but at the expense of. inflicting grave damage
to the tobacto | economy,. This has brought the incorporation of "volunteer" worke
ers to tha cropping of the leaf, which workers, due to their inexperience in |
break the leaf, with. the resulting damage to its quale

‘ Nevertheless, I believe that the chief trouble is represented by tho mr-~

these exports have been mdo with distrust, as there have’ been reports that Cue

This "international solidarity" practiced by Communist countries kept Cuba |
for a long tine. (19%2-1963) from entering Western Turopean markets,

Dumping as practiced by these countries, the lack of adecquate atocka for
the Europeans’ taste, difficulties and delays in deliveries (due to shortage of

. ships) have made the Europeans shy away from buying larger quantities of Cuban

leaf, and, any European importers have learned that Cuba As not a reliable
source of supply. 1a

Due to the above stated reasous, the Communist régime can barely place

had been receiving salaries and will prevent dissipation of AMSCROLL
funds and energies. The new, stream-lined organization is petter
able to concentrate upon the fiéld it ‘knows best; economic action. .
With ite present staff it is also able to undertake action in _
political, youth, and the other fields should this be deatrable.

2. The. ‘major activities of AMSCROLL during this quarter fell
tanto four categories, They are economic activities, Free World
shipping to Cuba,. dissemingtion -Of Fropaganda, and the AMSCROLL

radio program,
-€. :In the economic field AMSCROLL continuéd its analysia ¢ of

‘the. 1966 sugar harvest that officially ended at 11:00 pm, of 27 June--

though windup activities ‘continued into this quarter, The point ot
the post-mortem was to publicize why Cuba fell so far short
(2,044,745 tons) of its announced goal of 6,500,000 tons, which goal
was set ‘By Castro tn his May Day, 1965 spesch.
were the daily production figurés of Radio Havana; analyses con-
ducted by other experts. siich as ¥. 0, Licht, Czarnikow-Rionda, the
Merrill Lynch Weekly Sugar Letter, etc.; information the Station was
able to pass; and the background of such experts aa AMSNAKE<1,, .
AMRAIN~1, and AMWASP<]1. ‘The Station has. seen. stories based upon
these releases in the Miami Herald; the Miami News; the Economic
Intelligence Unit, a London publication; Alerta, @ publication in
uatesala; ineer; the Tines of America; and

F he Aserican Marine Eng
Diario Lay Americas. In addition appropriate Station assets such as
replay much of this information, The point of this was to

demonstrate to Free World commercial circles and to the Cuban radio
audience that Cuban economic promises are not reliable and hence
that Cuba is an unreliable nation with which to trade. In support
of this theme thia quarter also marked ths beginning of the campaign .

The. fireat public. gurfacing known to the Station of this study. was
a:story that appeared in the ¥iami News on 26 Septembor, This
story was prepared from an AH press release that was mailed

- to the AMSCROLL list of business people, bankers, and traders in-

tho U.S., Europe, and Japan. In n addition, .the local AFP correse
pondent: filed a story ‘based upon n this release,

Also during this quarter AMSCROLL: released other studies: -
of an economic nature on such subjecta as Cuban trade with Spain,

‘the status of the Cuban of] industry, and the failure of mochaniza=

tion of the Cuban sugar. industry, The bases of these studies were

- provided by the Station, often from information provided by qualified

refugees arriving vio the sir lift. In other cases, AMSCROLL-
personnel-=-particularly AMFRAME-l--would interview sone of these

refugees.

b. A continuing effort Was made during the quarter to -
publicize Free World shipping with Cuba. Each month a list is
compiled by the Station of those ships frox the Free World that
viaited Cuba during. the previous month which is passed to AMSCROLL
for release to the ‘press, In addition, a special study was mado
‘regarding the Greek firm Yranco Shipping Company, The wire services |
rogularly carry this information and'27 published stories on this
‘@ubject in U.8., Canadian, and English publications came. .to the

: Station's attention during thia period.

ce. During this period 16, 000 pieces of printed material
were mailed to Cuba, This included. 7,500 copies of AMSCROLL's —
miniature newspaper which contained condensed stories of such items.
an Castro's 26th of July Spéech, quotations from earlior Castro *

‘Bpesches making promises that. were not kept, the sugar deficit, and
defectione of: Cuban ecamen. Also, 7,500 copies..wore ‘mailed to Cuba

of a fnotice thet publicizes the AMSCROLL radio prograa and which.
requests. redders of. the miniature newspaper to leave it in public
places for others to read, .AMSCROLL still has a. supply of the

soap sheets which carries an imprinted message for the recipients
not to lose hope. One thousand of these were mailed to Cuba and

‘we anticipate continuing mailings. until the supply of these soap

sheets ie exhausted. About 4,350 copies of the esononic studies

‘described in 2.a. above were mailed to © carefully compiled list

of banks, business firms, etc. in. the U.8., Europe, and Japen,

- About 1,600 copies of these releases translated into Spanish vere

also distributed,

a. The AMSCROLL redio program is on the air over ANTHIGH

3, . The anount budge ted for the quarter ‘under review was

Of this amount $11,217.00:
was for salariea and $22,636.00 for operational expenses which
included office maintenance, A determined and successful effort
bas been nade to keep actual expenses under the budgeted amount.
Isiportant to this was the reorganization described in A.1. above
which in salaries alone amounted to a monthly reduction of $1,200,00,
Opérational and -housekeoping expensés have also bees reduced over

‘previous months with, the Station belioves, an improved operational

result,
Cc. PROBLEMS

"4, The Station boliever that- it has overcome a source of
potential trouble by pressing the reorganization of AMSCROLL that

- became effective 1 July in that persons who in thé past. had been

troible makers were eased out. The only remaining problem {s the
evér=-present one of AMFRAME~1 ‘who is capable of earning considerably

" gore - ‘than the Station ig paying. As an intelligent, aggressive

person with 4 groving family he will svoner or-later have to face

up to this personal probiem of his. He prefers to remain in the work
he is now doing for WOFACT which, cuupled with a recent salary
increase to $450.00 a month should combine to retain him at least

His wife has recently received an impressive

monetary prize of an academic nature and AMFPRAME-1's family in Vene-
zuela is currently supplementing his WOFACT pay, which factors also

help.
D, PLANS FOR NEXT (QUARTER

reorganized and we are hopeful that we can effect sdditional

economies. Operstionally the Station has these specific projects }
in mind which are. in addition to the normal activities: j

a. AMSCROLL. will - ‘attempt to push further the Station=e
developed story of the apotled Cuban lobster. with the goal in
mind of having &t branded of dubious quality in. Casada, France, —

' and other” countries.

b. The Station has bogun its utilization of AMBCROLL ‘te.
analyze the 1967 sugar harvest. As for the 1966 harvest, AMSCROLL's
final projection of the results of the harvest was made on 23 May,
some five weeks in advance of the 20 June official Cuban anhouncee
ment, AMSCROLL predicted a harvost of 4,496,400 tons, only 41,145
tone over the actual Ziguro. We know of no one who came this close.
We have observed with interest how such forecasters as Merrill Lynch:
offered figures that came even closer to the AMSCROLL projections -
as the final harvest date approached. We hope to repeat this

performance for the coming year.

ce. At the close of this reporting period the Station began”
@ campaign. to discourage Japan—Cuban trade in favor of expanded
Japanese trade with othor Latin American nations, This campaign
hap the concurrence of Headquarters and Station Tokyo ,MIRECTOR=364095
and TOKYO-9962),- AMFRAME~-1 and ANMSNAKE~] are boing utilized to .
implement this campaign insofar as Latin American business organizae-

tions are concerned.

which JMWAVE Station bas provided in referenced operation,
It may be of interest that the publication of the articles
cited in reference cost approximately $260.00 so.

2. Through GUSPOT-2 Madrid Station nade contact with Iden-
tity in an effort to establish on outlet for the publication
of economic reports concerning Spain and PBRUMEN. It was
agreed with the directors of Identity that the articles would
be paid for at the same rate as paid advertisements; hovever -
they would appear as exclusive reports of Identity ond bear
RO resemblance to a paid advertisement. Because of various.
legal ramifications, Identity agreed to publish only those
articles which were signed. : ;

_3. QUSPOT-2's approach to Identity vas made ortensibly
under the auepices of a PORUMEN exile group with whos he said
he was affiliated, the headquarters of which are ostensibly
in the JNWAVE area. It was agreed that the JMWAVE exile group
would furnish the material Girectly to Identity, with a copy
to QUSPOT-2, who, after receipt of the article, would thea
approach the directors of Identity to ascertain the price
of the article and push for its publication. In this regard

* | Madrid would appreciate continuing with this practice for the
mailing of articles intended for publication (with a copy
pouched to Madrid) as was. established,

“1. A result of QUSPOT-2's recent. holiday in the JMWAVE area has
been to establish a correspondence betwéen him and AMFRAME-1, the
signer of the Suplemento Especial of the ANSCROLL Economic Bureau, a
| : copy of which is forwarde y separate cover. QUSPOT=2 has indicated:
that he could use AMSCROLL economic studies and that he could arrange’ .-
for publication of at least some of these in Identity A. He suggested
that the original of such publications be sent to Identity B with a
copy to him, -This was done in the case of a recent economic report
which was shortly thereafter published in Identity A. QUSPOT-2 air~
mailed this story to AMFRAME~1 which arrived at about thé same time
as the copy the Madrid Station airmailed to the JMWAYZ overt address.

O: Repub? 2 on.-

2. We wish that the article being forwarded by separate cover
also be surfaced in Identity A. The original has been airmailed to
Identity B with a copy to QUSPOT-2 per QUSPOT=2's suggestion. JMWAVE - ©
feels that this is a useful mechanism and unless advised to the .
contrary we propose to' forward additional AMSCROLL studies to Identity. B
for publication in Identity A. Should Madrid prefer sve, of course, can
in the future forward such articles directly to the Station for .
placement instead of airmailing them to Identity B.

3. Studies similar to the one being forwarded are regularly
prepared in English on a number of economic subjects. They are
distributed to shipping firms, certain banks engaged in international
commerce, international trade organizations, international commodity
houses, etc, They are translated into Spanish solely for use in —
Identity A; thus, in this:sense, these reports are an "exclusive", _

“ STATEVENT OF RAUL DE LA RUA C4STRO,-
My name is Ravil de la ‘Rea Castro, and I was the Chief Engineer aboard the Cuban MV
ETERRA MESTRA until March 20, 1%6, when I jumped ship in Muroran, Japan.

Working conditions in the Cuban Merchant:Fleet also influenced my decision, I :
could not stand the intensified espionage on board by menters- -of the G-2, It is F
worth mentioning that the plan to indoctrinate Cuban merchant crews was a complete

failure. The regime hag atardoned the project altogether, an? is now trying to a
place loyal Commnists as officers and crewmembers, even if they are not qualified ‘
for their Joba... ,

fg a matter of fact, the lack of qualified personnel is an increasing problem, and
another source of trouble aboard Cuban veaséls. During the leet months a total of
twenty nine officials, officers and crewmembers of the Cuban Merchant Marino have
defected (data of up-to-date merchant mrine score). After I quit the CIERRA MAES
TRA, for instance,* there was not a cingle certified engineer on board, although
there were several young feiiows getting on the job training, -This 1s a fact that
should be taken into consideration by the ‘insurance firms that underwrite Cuban
vessels,

Most of the vessels are faced with all sorts of mechanical difficulties, due to
lack of spare parts and a very faulty maintainance, situation tkat gets worse when
consider the scarcity of qualified personnel just mentioned. .

Iam very happy to have joined those of my fellow Cuban officer who preceded ms
in this decision, I wish to thank the "Free Cuban Merchant ¥ farine Committee" for
all the attentions accorded me, and I hope to rejoin our merchent fleet soon, when
our vessels again sail under the fleg of a free country. .

Mi nombre os Rauvl do la Rua Castro y hasta ol 20 de narzo do 1% desempend el
carge dv Jefe de Mdquinas de la Yotonavo SIERRA MAESTR i, cargo este que abandons

en Horerdn, Japda. ; . .
Las ‘ccndiciones-de trabajo cn la Marina Mercante Cubana fueron uno de los motives
Tampoco podfa continuar soportands el espio=
haje y la vigilancia a bordo por mienbros del G2, Vale la pena mencicnar que ol
plan de adéctrinamiento para. los miembros de las dotaciones de la flota cercante
cubana ha fracasado completamente. El rdgimen ha abandonado dicho plan y lo unico

que hace shorg ea custituir a los que abandonamos los buquos por personal “polities .

camente apto", pero caronte de capacidad técnica para desempejar los cargos,

De hecho, ol rdgimen confronta un serio probloma ante la escasez de personal téens
co csaracitado y tituledo, y dsto constituye otra fuente de problems a tordo de
los teques cubanos, Durante los Wltimos meses un total de veinte y nueve funciona
rios, oficiales y tripulantes de la flota mercante cubana han abandonado sus care
gos. Fara quo se tenga una idea sobre la gravedad de este problema resulta necesg
rio sexalar que después que yo abandond 61 SIERRA MAESTR1 no quedd a berdo un sdlo

maquinista con titulo, a pesar de que varios muchachos jdvenes se oncontraban alli ;

recibiemdo entronamiento, poro por supuesto, ain sin ‘el debido titulo. Esta es una
realidad que debe ser considerada seriamente por las firmas aseguradoras de buques

cubanos.

La maycria de los buques confronten dificultades en lo referente al funeicnaniento
debide principalmante a ln falta de piezas de repuesto y al mantenimiento defectue
80 ¥y poco eficiente y como cs natural este problema se acentua con la escasoz do

personal técnico capacitddo on las dotaciones.

Deseo ranifestar que estoy contento ce encontrarme junto a tantos otros conpayeros
de la Marina Mercante quo me han precedido y quiero agradecer publicamente al "Co-
mité de Ia Marina Mercante Cubana Libre" las atencionos que ha tenido connigo, asf
comd la ayuda que me estan prestando, y sinceramente espero poder volver a la Mart
na Marcante en un futuro proximo} cuando una vez mis podamos navegar bajo el. rabe-

lldn de una Patria libre.

aterrorizados como por 18 nopa se acercaba veloznente una lancha patrullera cuba-

na, ave al ver el buque norteamericano viré en redondo y regresé a Cuba,

Yo me encontraba en el hotel en Londres y una llamada de larga distancia me

Lallamada informéndome del arribo de mi fam!)ia.a los EE.UW. 11@96 precisa@-

Estos me observaban atentamente, como querierde adivinar lo que se me decfa dese
de el otro lado de la lfnea. Por tanto, tuve que desplegar mis escasas dotes de
actor teatral y simular que la llamada era of icsa). desde Cuba.

Ante esta situacién, optd por informar, falcamente, a los restantes deiega=
dos quo el. gobierno cubano me habfa encargado ©1 cuidado de otros asuntos, por
lo que tendrf{a que demorarme algunos dfas mas de los previstos en Madrid.

medios de transporte, nrinci palmente los ferrocarriies Szucareros, deseamos acla
rar qua se encuentran tambi¢n en pésimas condiciones, a pesar de la ‘adquisickén

de locomotoras sovidticas, inglesas y francesas, pues las vfas férreas no permi-

descarrilamientos que durante la zafra de 1965 alcanzaron un promedio de tres des

Muchos me preguntan cual serd la preduccién final de la zafra de 1966 y so -

bre este punto debo hacer los comentarios siguientes; Fidel Castro anuncié que
_ la meta azucarera da este aifo serfan 6.5 millones de tcneladas y ese anunecio no
sélo fue hecho durante su discurso del lro. de mayo de 195, sino que lo repitié
durante su discurso del 7 de junio del mismo ano. Sin embargo, se admite que dj

cha meta-no seré alcanzéda. Ahora bien el estimado actual no excede de 5.1 mi-~

llones de toneladas,  &Por qué?

Primeranente se debe mencionar la falta de abono, Este afio la aplicacién

En segundo lugar, resulta necesario-hacer referencia a las Ssiombras de cafia,

. : situada en los alrededores de Manzanillo y Bayamo, las cuales eran zonas arroce = —
ras y ahora han intentado convertirlas en zonas caferas resultando todo esto en
un fracaso pues la cafia es de baja calidad al no ser adecuado el suelo.. Otro fag

i
tor menos importante pero digno de darse a conocer es la falta de cuidado en las

tareas de cultivo y atencién de los cafiaverales debido a 1a escasez de mano de g

° ; “bra.

Con estos antecedentes es que hay que analizar el monto de la.presente zafr3.
Durante 1965 e1 dfa 7 de abril se alcanzé el cuarto millén, pero este ao el ter- :
cer millén se aleanzé el dfa 3 de abril lo cual ya significa un atraso de cerca
da 900,000 toneladas. Creo que hay cana para llegar a 9,1 millones de toneladas
ahora bien, lo que hay que preguntarse es si dicha meta, que ya estd bastante- por -
dabajo de 10s 6.3 millones anunciados por Fidel Castro serd alcanzada © No. El
Partido ests realizando una movi lizacién masiva record hacia los cafiaverales con
el propésito da intentar cortar toda.la cafia pero eso hay que ver si en defint-
tiva lo dbgran hacer. : oo : ;

Cabe hacer referencia en este momento a lo que se conoce en Cuba por el nog ‘
bre de “Pian Perspective Azucarero", que es el Unico plan econdmico que tiene en
estos momentos el gobierno de Cuba. .

2qué ese} “Plan Perspectivo Azucarero”? comprende tres puntes bdsicos que
son los siguientes : primero, la "rehabi itacién" de la capacidad industrial a nj

veles pre-Castroy segundo, la "ampliacién” de la capacidad industrial: y tercero,

la “concentracién” de la industria azucarera en 70 modernos centrales.

Vamos a yevisar brevemente los tres puntos a la luz de 1a presente situacién.

“‘Anstaiada, es necesario destacar que en 1952 la capacidad de produccién de la in
dustria azucarers era de siete millones de toneladas, pero debido a la escasez

de piezas de repuasto, falta de materiales para las reparaciones, baja calidad de
las reparaciones y 1a eliminacién de seis ingenios - que fueron precisamente des

mantelados para utilizar las piezas como’repuestos lo cual ce ha comprobado ha si
do un error m&s - la capacidad industrial se ha reducido a sélo seis millones de

toneladas, es decir, ave la actual polftica ha resultado en la presente merma de

in your kind letter of 5/5/66, which I hope will be useful to you in your studies

‘.".. of price and cost trends in the cane sugar industry.

As you probably know, the Cuban surar industry ranked first
placo as a producer of cane sugar, not only with rogarda to largo production vole
umes, but also as concerns high technical efficiency and low production costs.

wot Before 1959, the mximia production’ cost was of 3.5 cents a

‘pound, excepting, of course, the smaller and more inofficiont sugar mills that
had not developed any technological advances since World War II, Howéver, in
1965 the cost. of production was as high as 5,25 cents a pound, even though, of
course, this latter figure is carefully concealed by the Comaunist régime that

rules my countr#,

Calf, Colombia,

Dear Mr. Lozanor es
Wa address you now on account of the failure of the current Cuban

sugar harvest, of which failuro you must have heard not oly through our’ "Eco-

, nomic Intollicence Report”, but aleo from your own sourcese

- the June 10, 19¢6 Merril-Lynch bulletin, sets the g
mount of the current Cuban sugar harvest at 4,440,000 MY, that fs, over 2 million —
metric tens below the goal announced by Fidel Castre {6,800,000 “T), This will |
rosult in a acercity of Cuban sugar, which scarcity will make it very é4F ficult
for the reqine to fulfill its suger commitmants. to freeeworld countries, such as
Spain.and Morecco, and at the same time to cope with » significant percentage of
the Japanese sugar market. The enclosed Memo contains data that may be of intg

rest. to you,

tha

Maes “> + For examele,

The racent transactions whereby Prazil sold 330,000 MT fs tangible
evidence of the opportunity that’ exists for free countries in the Azerices at
thia timé, thanks to tho failure of the Cubsn sugar harvest. :

It would be extremely rewarding for Colombia to exnlera the inm
diate possibilities that elxst in those three markets, as surely som transag.
tione could be made that would benefit your country, and which, at the same tino,
would’ block some of the Castro-Communists’ own transactions, The latter are in
themsalves difficult becauso of the scarcity brought about by the failure of the
1964 sugar harvest,

It {s quito peoasible that wa could cocperate with this Colombian
endeavor, by informing you of facts we learn concerning the situation in such mag
kets (Spain, Morocco and Japan), markets a6 well as by any personal undertaking,

‘which we could be capable of.

Likewise, if you have any rublication issued by your Association
that you cculd mall to us reqularly, we would apprecsata your dcinc so, and if:
you wore able to use the statements hy Eng, Esparza and Dr, Tarrab in some art{
cle, we would like ot obtain a copy of it.

: Hoping to hear from you -socn, and with the certainty ‘that any ag
tien on your part »111 mean 9 victory fer Colombia as wall as for the free Cubans,

we are,
Yours very sincerely,

ACTION REQUIRED: FYI

1. Beginning with the broadcast for 19 Octobor 1965 the Station
at its request began recoiving a summary of cach AMSCROLL AMTHIGH
program. We forward by scparate cover these summaries through the
evening of 20 January 1966 (with the excoption of the periods of
28-30 November and 2-4 January for which no summary. was prepared),
Henceforth those summaries will be forwarded on an at least bi-weekly.

basis,

2. The Station is attempting to improve both the punch and the
quality of these programs, We belicve, for example, that more
emphasis should be placed upon. regime failures.and upon tho necdless
economic mess. Further, we are trying to refine the "irritability"
factor so far as Castro and the regime are concerned duc to the
sensitivity of Castro to this type of attack, Calling Castro (on

19 January) the "Soviets' barking hound dog” is:a sally in this

direction,

3. As usual with programs of this nature the size and reaction of
the audience is most difficult to ascertain, It is some comfort to be
able to record that during this period 10 letters have been received
by ANSCROLL that have beon inspired by this program. The President's
uncle, Carlos Dorticos, told AMSCROLL-3 that he had been a frequent
listener to this program and that he had listened to this program at
his home the night before he left Cuba,

purge has kept Carlos Rafael Rodripuez from openly attacking Fidel Cnetro..’ Instead,
he has taken resource to veiled reticence and references to Fidel Castro's "petty=
burgeois" past, mixed with insincere praises, in order to make it known that the
"classics" of Varxdem-Leniniem still distrust Fidel, If their differences with the
"new wave" are really a thing of the pact, why doce Old-Guard man Carlos Rafael now

A Cuban skipper who left his ship in Japan Dec. 26 confirmed today in Miami that =
Castro's logistical support of Viet Nam Reds was the rain reason for his defection,
In 0 prees conference held at the Biscayne Room of tho Hotel McAllister, Francisco.
Cobas, the defecting captain of the Cuban freightor "Aracelio Iglesias", told news-.
mon why ho and three of his fellow officers decided to seek asylum in the United --

States,

Tho pross conference was arranged by UNIDAD REVOLUCIONARTA, a Miami-based Cuban -- ©

group whom Cobas approached upon his arrival from Japan, Cobas ceid that he had -
apked the U.R. to help him get in touch with the prova eo that he and his shipmates
could denounce Cuban maneuvers to help the Viet Cong.

During the conferonce, Cobas was flanked by Antonio Arias, Vario Pérez and Humberto
Ferndndoz, the three other defecting officers of the "Aracelio Iglesias", Cobas, ~
introduced by U.R. Secrotary General Mario Seiglic, spoke for the group. Said Co--
bas that ho and his shipmates had refused torun tho riske of transporting war mate-
riale to Horth Viet Nam, particularly since they were convinced that such transpor-
tation was wrong, Coban added that all Cuban vengola have been ordered to take mil
itary cupplies to North Viet Nam from other Asian Communict ports, and that the Cub
an Embassy in Tokyo serves as coordinator for all such shipments.

Referring to hie former ship, Capt. Cobas explained that the Embacsy had ordered ~-
the "hracelio Iglesias" to saii to a North Korean port and to await further instrug
tions there, The Cuban diplomats withheld the ship's itinerary and declared that -
the "Aracelio" would return: to the Japanese port of. Yahata before proceeding to --
North Viet Nam. By pretending that the ship would come back to Japan, they hoped -
to deceive the crew and reasrire the Japanese as to the cargo and the use to which -
the ship was being put, The truth was, however, that, while in North Korea, the -~
"Aracalio" was to receive orders to load a cargo of war supplies and sail directly

from there to North Viet Nam.

According to Cobas, this could not be done in the end because the ‘Tokyo Embassy was
warned at the last moment that the North Korean port of Chinnampo was .blocked by —~
The “Aracelio" was now ordered to pick up another military shipment at Shan--

ice,
It was then that Cobas and his shipmates dec--

ghai and take it to North Viet Han.
ided to walk out, 1

Cobas went on to explain that logistical support to the North Vietnamese was one of
the two tasks assigned to the new Cuban envoy in Tokyo, a fanatically loyal Comm-~~-

nist: named Manuel Jorge Cucvo Venéndes, whose previous job was to run concentra--
tion camps in the Isle of Fines. ~

Tho Cuban skipper referred to ill-treatment of Cuban soamen by the Castro regime,
mentioning arong other. instances the conrtant spying on board by C-2 meng prefer—-
ential Custons treatment given Conriunist-Bloc sailorsgand the ridiculously low lo-
cal-currency allowance of 3% per, week given to the Cubans while in foreign ports.
Elaborating on the isdue of espionage, Capt. Cobas revealed that the radio and tel--
egraph operator 1s usually the G-2 man on board. Ag captain of the “Aracelio", Co-
bas himeolf was forced to. surrender the mail of supposedly "disloyal" crewmen to --
one of the spies assigned to his ship. ; :

As regards operation conditions of tho Cutan merchant fleet, Cobas told newsmen <=
that the two basic problems confronted by Cuban shipping are the obsolete Soviet --
equipmont installed in most boats and the excessive oaucratic red tape and dis--
organization, As example of the latter, he montioned tho fact, that the Cuban buy=

ing agency seldom informs the shipping coordinating office of the dates oh which -=
the merchandice 15 to be picked up at a foreign port. Last-minute notices and pub-
sequent offorts to find éhips usually mee’ failure, with the result that the seller
must pay higher warchouse costs. This he’ caused rany foreign firms to either re-

fuee to trade with.Castro-or to impose extromely harsh terms to protect themselves

from the coztly effects of tia Communists! unreliability, .

Capt. Franciaco Cobis then revealed that he understocd that a vast "reorganization"
of the Cuban Havy was undertaken early this fall, Most officers, he said, were dig
charged on the grounds of suspected "disloyalty" to the government. Incidentally,
added Cobas, some retired Army officers who have had no naval experience, have also
been assigned to the merchant marine. Cobas assured his audience that their deci-
aion to quit was made of their own free will and that no one had prossured them --
into 1t, He denounced Communiet oppression of his homeland and said that ho and his
three shipnates refused to keep serving under it. ;

Following Capt. Cobas' statement, the newsmon asked him numerous questions. Most =
of these referr,d to the iscue of Cuban boats being used to carry war supplies to -
Viet Nam, which was quoted by the Cuban seamen as the chief reason for their defec-
tion, All journalists present showed great interest in this matter, as such Cuban
assistance to Viet Nam Reds more or less directly results in the loss of American ~

livea in that. Asian country.

Un capitan cubano que abandond su nave en Japén el 26 do diciembre confirnd hoy
en Miami que el cpoyo logfatico de Castro a los rojos de Viet Nam hab{a sido el prin
cipal motivo de su desercién. =n una conferencia de prensa colebrada en un céntrico
hotel de esta ciudad, Francisco Cobas, capitan del carguero cubano “Aracelio Iglesias"
explicd a los periodistas por qué él ys sus compafieros de oficialidad decidieron soli-

eitar asilo en los EEUU.

_ La conferencia de prensa fué convocada por UNIDAD REVOLUCICNARIA, organizacion cu.
bana radicada aqui a la que se dirigiéd Cobas a su Llegada del Japon. Cobas dijo que
habia solicitado la aytida de U.R, a fin da ponerse en contacto con los periodistas y
denunciar las maniobras de Cuba Roja en favor de los rojos vietnamitas.

Durante la conferencia, se encontraban junto a Cobas los otros tres oficiales asie
lados, nombrados Antenio Ruiz Arias (Primer Oficial),‘ Mario Julio Pérez Giron (Jefe
de Naquinas), y Hunberto R: Fornandez (Sobrecargo), El capitdén Cobas fue presentedo
por ei Dr. Mario Seiglie, Secretario General de UNIDAD REVOLUCIONARIA.

Dijo Cobas que tanto 61 como sus compafierss de tripulacion se negaban a correr el |
riesgo que supone trensportar material bélico a Viet Iam del Norte, maxime cuando a -
brigaban la sconviceién de que dicha actitud del gobierno cubano es altarente condena-
ble. Afiadid Cobas que todos los buques cubanos tienen drdenes de llevar suministros
de guerra a Viet Nom del Norte desde otros puertes comunistas del Asia, y que la Enba
jada cubana en Tokyo funge como coordinadora de tales embarques,

Refiriéndose at "Aracelio Iglesias", que capitaneaba, Cobas reveld que la Enbaja-
da cubana en Japén habfa di spuesto que el "Aracelio" zarpare rumbo a un puerto norco~
reano y aguardara allf mevas érdenes. Los diplomiticos castristas retuvieron el iti
nerario del buque y declararon que el mismo volverfa al puerto japonés de Yahata an =
tos de seguir rumbo a Viet Nam dol Norte. Al hacer ver se el buque regresarfa al J2
pon, los comunistes se proponfan enganiar a la tripulacion y tranquilizar e las autor
dades japonesas respecto del cargamento del buque y del uso que se iba a dar al mismo.
La realidad, empero, era que, durante la estancia del "Aracelio" en Corea del Korte,

ces quo Cobas y ais compafieros decidieron abandonar el buque.

ty chipmtor and I have requested political asylum from the United ftates
because we aro convinced that Cutan support of the Com-unist var in Vietnam is
wrong and ve r-fvow to run tne ricks of transpocting war material to North Viet
Nan, . '

All Cuban ships have orders to carry cargo to North Vietnam to help the
North Vietnamese war effort, The Cuban Embassy in Japan is acting as the coore
dinator for all shipments of war material to North Vietnam via Cuban ships from
Communist ports in Asia, The Cutan Embassy in Tokyo had secretly arranged for
tho jracolio Iglosias to take a shipmont of war materials from Morth Korea to”

North Viotnam. In order to hide their intentions, the Embassy arranged that the:

fracelio itinorary be kept up in the air until the last possible moment; then to :
fool the crew and the Japanese they gavo the story the ship would return to Japan ae
to lead tin cargo at Yahata and then proceed on route to North Vietnam. In reale
ity, wo woro to receive instructions on itinerary while in North Korea telling
us to proceed directly to North Vietnam after loading tho war supplies,

At the last moment, howaver, tho Embassy was informed that the port of
Chinnampo was blocked by ice. The Cuban Enbassy then hastily arranged for us to :
pick up a shipment of arms in Shangad previously scheduled for another Cuban
boat about the end of January. . :

Logistical support to the North Vietnamese is one of the two taske assigned ;
to Mr, Nanuol Jorge Cuerya,. the now Cuban Ambassador to Japan, His other funce
tion is to erase the bad effects on Japanese-Cuban trade caused by the defection
of the former trade Counselor to Japan, Gilberto Alerany. Tho Cuban government | :
is very concerned about the prospect of declining trade einee already some comp-
anies that formerly traded with Cuba, will no longer do so openly.

In genoral, I may say that members of the Cuban merchant marine live under
unbearable conditions, The treatment wo receive is so bad that no one foala
like cooperating with the marine purposes of the regime, even in the few cases
where there might be no ideological incompatibility involved,

As examples of this treatment, I may mention the constant spying on board y
by members of the "G-2", For some reason, the "G-2" man on board is usually the
radio and telegraph operator, In the "Aracelio"” we had one by the name of Eduay —
do Sanchez who was a notorious spy. Abourd we had another ran called Manuel Ria
Rodriguez who was imposed as the Fourth Dngineer, even though he had no training
or ability to perform such duties. As Captain of the "Aracelio", I vas ordered

by the governiont ahipping concern "Vazticas" to give Rua ‘all possible ccopsrat~
fon in the fulfillment of his functions. Rfla then camo to see me and asked,
among other things, that I surrerder to him tho incoming and outgoing mail of
certain apecific crewmen who were su2zected of teing arainst tha government.
, Another instance of 1ll-treatrent which Cutan seamen resent is the discrin4
nation to which we are subject ty the Cuban Cuctoms as compared to the preferr~-
tial treatront they accord to foreign eallore, particularly those from behind
the fron curtain, Most overything ws tring fron abroad to alleviate the scarcity
suffered by our families ia confiscates at the Customs House.

Still other reasons for disgust are the rany cute and discounts nade from ow!
already low pay and, very especially, the fidiculousiy low amount of foreigt cug
rency that wo ure allowed when we eail atroad. For spending money in foreign.
‘ports, all we got in local currency 12 ths equivalent of 4 per week which, of
course, are deducted from our basic salzries, In applying this restriction, no

distinction is mde botwoen the crevren or ths various officer ranko, It 1a $5

for everyone. .
Because of all this, and becauze of the terrible conditions under which

_ Communism keeps our homeland, most Cutan eailorg and officers aro staunch anti-

Communists. The Government knows thiz, but nevertheless thoy must employ what
they call "tho reactionaries" because of the scarcity of other trained pereonnel
to man Cuban boats, Their only choice is to spy on us constantly, as I fave
just explained.

As to the operating conditions of the Cuban merchant fleet, it is vorth
mentioning that Polish ships, which raze yp a sizable proportion of Cuban ship-
ping, are supplied with Sovict-made equiprert which the Russians have long aise
carded as obsolete. Again, my own ship is an example, The "Aracelio" wee com
pleted as recently ae 1963 in a Polizh shipyard. Yet, ite radar equiprent is 60
obsolete that it is simply not used, since we could never find the parte to re=-
pair it when it broke. A German tecknic‘tan told my Chief Mate here that it rust
have been a World-War II unit. ty

Excessive bureaucratic red tape ard disorganization is another serious
problem confronted by Cuban shipring a¢ which often results in considernble
damage to those firms that trade with tie Castro tyranny, I will illustrate
this. The Cuban government agency reepcnsible for arranging maritime treanspor=

tation for merchardise bought abroad is the “Empresa Cubana de Fletes" (CUFLET).

14-0000

-j-

The governrent purchasing organization buys merchandise from foreign companios,
but fails to inform CUFLET of the date on which tho cargo is to be loaded. ALL —
atterpts to establish this aro 2 to no avail, Then one day the buying agency
serves Last-ninute notice that the merchandice will be ready for loading.

CUFLET takes pains to find a veseel in time but, more often than not, ite hasty
efforts arc in vain, In the meantime, the seller abroad grows impatient, as he
has long fulfilled his part of the deal and must continue to pay warehouse costs
because of a delay that fs no fault of his. ,

This happens all the time, to the extent that many foreign firms refuse to
deal with such an undependable cuctomor as the Cuban government, or, foroseeing
the damages they may come to them because of such inefficiency they impose the
harshest eolling terms, .

The unrest and chaos that I have deccribed ia not peculiar to the merchant
fleet. Ido not know many details about this because I have been out at sea most
of the timo since I first heara of it, but I understand that the Cuban Navy was
also in such turmoil that practically all its officers were discharged early inde
fall. It is said that soma of tho dicmiceed naval officera were a:signed to the

merchant marine, and my men and I know a few instances. It 4s even true that -

. Army officers with no naval experience are being appointed to high naval posi-

tions. However, it is most likely that many of the purged officers will have
been shot or imprisoned. Such is. the Cubs of today.

Lastly, we wish to emphasize that our decision to ecek asylum in the United
States has been made of our own free will. 'o have been pressured into this dec}
‘sion by no one. Our consciences no longer permit us to serve the cause of a Con
munist Cuba. Like hundreds of Cubans before us, we who love Cuba deeply cannot

longer endure the tyranny with which she is afflicted.
We appreciate with all our heart the help received from UNIDAD R'VLUCINARIA
and we also wish to thank the gentlemen of the Press assembled here, for the at-

tention given us.

Francisco Cobas.

REF; DIR-$3981, 28 October 65

SUBJECT

As Headquarters is aware, JMWAVE is refuting on a con-
tinuing basis and via all appropriate assets commentaries
similar to that discussed in the reference. As for this
particular GOMEZ broadcast the Station prepared a guidance
for AMSCROLL use, primarily its radio, the point of which
was that GOMEZ had become eligible for the "Foot 'n Mouth
Club" due his admission on 21 October that Camarioca was a
plebiscite and his statement on 22 October, no doubt as a
result of a prod from his Communist superiors that "I think

7 I made excessive concessions ..." explaining that the people

are really leaving due to economic reasons. We agree and
say that the economic reasons are to obtain three meals a
day, to be able to walk into a market and buy eggs and milk.
The guidance ends with this: "You may take your foot out of

your mouth now, GOMEZ".

ACTION REQUIRED: FYI

c 1. We forward under separate cover subject publication which was
recently sent to AMSCROLL mail recipients interested in economic
material. In producing this study a particular effort was made to
keep it objective and factual on the theory that tn the case of sugar
the facts speak for themsclves and need only tu he pulled together.

We also believe that objective material similar to the attached should
over a period of time enhance the reputation of the ANSCROLL eccnomic
section as a serious and objective outfit that seeks to discredit the
Castro regime by publicizing the truth. |<

2. The Station would appreciate Neadquarters' reaction to this
publication, Additional copies are available should distribution via
KMFORGET or othor means be desired. .

3. %It may be of interest to report that a copy of the attached ‘
report has been mailed to Identity, currently in Geneva where he is a
representing his company at the sugar conference, This was done , 4

which can and should be attributed to AMSCROLL research, It may
be of. interest to record that the first.paragraph of this item was
developed from 0/27839-65 of 17 September as authorized by reference B,
’ The second paragraph was developed from a lead obtained from 0/27842-65
of 22 September which sent us to two publications by Merrill Lynch,

l.- Cuba continues desperate attegpts sell sugar.- The Cuban sugar monopoly, CUBA=

. cUCAR, on September 6 concluded a sale of 5,000 tons of raw sugar for October 1965 . :
* delivery to the Iranian sugar organization. The origin of this sugar was hidden in :
. that it was declared to have originated in the Caribbean, including Peru, excluding :
Bragil. Market reports were-correct in stating that the country of origin was in ~ :
! fact Cuba. The price agreed to was 18 pounds sterling per ton (C-and F) less § --— i
: shillings per ton to cover the expenses of the tender. This deal was engineered by }
Westzucker of Dortmund, an organisation also gelling Cuban sugar to Jordan and which ;

wishes to keep its name out of thase sales,
Another interesting development in Cuba's sugar selling activities during the month ;

of September was quoting sugar for future delivery at or under the London spot - -
price on the day the offer was made. In other words, Cuba is offering sugar under

the world market value.

ate need for foreign exchange. These sales at these prices can only result ina -
net loss to Cuba due to Cuba's inefficient sugar production. This loss will be coq
pounded should the present upward trend of world sugar futures continue (the New ~
York price for world sugar on Caribbean port basis has gone from 41.60 on September

1 to $2.10 on September 27). ;

felt ‘throughout Latin Arerica, due to muintained "agit-prop" and subversive sctiv~
ities by the Castro reginc, financed, partially, with foruign oxchango rocuLting
from ite trade with Japan.”

A highly illustrative example 1s the case of Venezuola.

ae- Japan was able to obtein U2 133.5 aillion for tho pericd 1958-
1963 from its favorable trade balance with Venezuela. Tho favorable result in tho

tries cuteide tho Homisphero, to cease diploza*ic and trado rolationo with Cuba.

3-2 The Inter-American Workers Crennization {ORIT), :

During its VI Continental Congross, held in Moxico City, on Fobriuary
&, 1965, recommonded the maritime boycott which was already in progress urdcr tha
leadorship of tho. Vonozuolan dockworkers. ;

Racontly, after 17 vessels have suffercd tho boycott, a statomcent,
made -by intornational labor leaders during the IV Congress of Venozuelan Dockvarit-
ers, held in Caracas from October 9 to October 13, 1965, reaffirmed the boycott.
Japanese veseols have been boycotted due to this defensive measuro of the workura
of this Homisphere.

4.- Tha Management Boycott.

The Chambor of Commerce of tha Acericas, during its XV Annual Conven-
tion hold in Miami, Fla., U.S.A., adopted a resolution on June 16, 1965, along the
same lines of the OAS and ORIT recommendations. Since then, a Managemont Boycott

bers of commerce support this campaign.

a0 cited as Contrast to preresterous be-=

haviour or the suugster Galbe.-

Here is text of letter sent to the Foreign Affairs and Intertor Mi,

nisters of Greece:

Excellency: . ;
"You say recall that, in mid-May this year, the Communist Cuban --

Charge d'Affaires in Athens, Jcse Luis Galbe, was the object of world -
attention *fter he shot a Greek bus driver over a trivial traffic argue

- ment near the town of Thermopylae. Newspapers throughout the world car
ried the stery *nd it would not be exaggerated to label the incident ag

an internstional scandal -one which may be said to have damaged Hellen-

ic dignity to the same extent to which the Castro regime ignores it by
accrediting gangsters such as Galbe as its diplomatic representatives ~-

before the Greek people." .

"On that occasion, we wrote the Greek government calling their at-
tention to the need to save the henor of Greece by severing all ties +-
diplomatic and commercial-- with the Red government of Cuba, At that ~-
time, we warned that the cangster Galbe was typical of the new promotion
of Hed Cuban "diplomats" --mostly undesiruble Communists trained to Per
form.tasks of espionage and agitation-- and substantiated our assertion
with a quote from Udon Alvarez de la Campa, a defecting Cuban diplomat--
who had charged Galbe by name during a press conference in Madrid."

“Today, two new defections from the Cuban Foreign Service prompt us
to re-open the Galbe case. le refer to those of Mssrs. Gilberto R..Al¢e
many Vilar, until recently, Trade Counseler to the Cuban Embassy in:To-
kyo, and Luis Ricardo Alonso Fernandez, until recently, Cuban Ambassada@r

to Great Britain,”

"Both former diplomats had always been regarded a3 competent, ser£
ous men even by us, the relentless opposers of the Castro-Communist ty~
anny. Before he took office 1s Cuban Ambassador to the United hingdon
in 1963, Luis R. Alonso Fernandes had also performed ambassadorial du -
ties in Peru and Norway. A scholarly, well-mannered man, he is well re
membered by all who knew him in his diplomatic office, even if they may
hove disapproved of the totalitarian regime that he represented, Even.
tually, he became disenchanted with Communism and publicly resigned his
post in London only a.few days aro. (Iu connection with Mr. Alonso's re.
Signation, the Greek newspaper "Vradyni", in {ts September 6 issue, won
ders precisely why Red Cuban Ambassador balbe has not been ousted yet)."

"Gilberto R. Alemany, an enually able and well-bred trade specia’-
list, held his Counselor's position for three years in Tokyo, His re'-
cognition of the true nature of the Red Cuban government led him to de-
fect secretly and become our own secret agent in Japan. Late last mon-
th, after fulfilling his dangerous mission, he made his feelings public

in Miami." :

. "As you can see, those decent people, who are still active in Cas-
trots diploratic corps cannot stand it for a long time. These new’ de-
fections show that the few that remain are abandoning the sinking ship
to the "new wave" of Castroite diplonats --gangsters, spies and agita-
tors in Galbe's fashion." oe

U.R. REPORTS

SOVIET “PISHING" BASE IN HAVANA

UNIDAD REVOLUCIONARIA (UR) has learned from its underground sour =
ces in Cuba the following infermation:

The Russians are constructing doeks, warehouses, freezers, dry <=
docks, buildings with communication equipment and other necessary ins-
tallations for the operation of a fishing fleet in the east coast of =
the port of. Havana, according to the Cubar-Soviet agreement of Septem-
ber, 1962, ,

These constructions are directed and supervised by Soviet techni-
cians with the collaboration of Cuban "slave work". The Soviet Union
furnishes all the necessary equipment and machinery, in addition to <=
the above mentioned supervision and technical assistance; Cuba offers
the labor as well as the basic construction materials.

It was stipulated that the Soviet Unicn and Cuba would share in -
equal parts this fishing terminal which original cost was $12 million
"pesos" but now it has come up. ke $30 millions and is expected to be -
finished by the beginning of 1966,

However, it has.been learned that due to the large sum owed by ~ |
the Castro-Communist regime to the Soviet Ynion, the Russians have de~
cided that these facilities will be for their exclusive use once they

are concluded,

All the fish caught will be taken to this terminal, processed and
exported to the Soviet Union and Lurope in Russian vessels, without -
any profit for Cuba, nor the Cuban fishing vessels will be allowed to.

use said installations,

t_of Havana will be_closed

This area of the east coast of the po
cl fray Soviet personnel will-

as S00n aS installations are finished an
have access to that zone.

This absolute control of the Soviets in the same port of Havana-
nas led many tothink that said installations will not only serve for -
operating Soviet trawlers - which activitles in espionage, infiltratim
c. subversive and terrorist agents are well known - but that_it might
hide military constructions, Submarine pens, and other installations -
that could threaten the security of the kemisphere.

so : BASE _"PESQUERA" SOVIETECA EN LA HABANA

° UNIDAD REVOLUCICNARIA (UR) ha podido conocer a través de sus fuentes clandeg
. tinas en Cuba los siguientes informes:

los rusos estén construyendo muelles, diques secos, naves refrigeradas, plan
tas de comunicaciones y der4s instalaciones neces: rias para las operaciones
de una flota pesquera en la costa este dé] puerto de La Habana, conforme a
lo ectipulado en el acuerdo Soviético-Cubano de Septiembre de 1962,

Estas construcciones se llevan a cabo bajo la direccién y supervisién de téc '
nicos soviéticoa, con la -colaborecién de. "trabajo esclavo" cubano. Ls Unién .
e Soviética facilita todos los equipos y maquinarias, ademés de la mencionada :
_ . supervisién y asistencia técnicas, y Cuba pone la arena, piedras y materia- . :
les bisicos de construccién, aparte de la mano de obra.

“Se habia estipulado que la Urién Soviética y Cuba usufructuasen a partes :
iguales esta terminal pesouera de vastas properciones, cuyo costo original :
era do $12 millones de "pesos", pero que ya asciende a $30 millones y que se - oe
espera estara terminada para principios de 1966. :

. Sin embargo, se ha podido conocer que debido a la cuantiosa suma que el régi
nen Castro-Comuniste adeuda a la Unién Soviética, los rusos han determinado
cue estas instalaciones serdn para su uso exclusivo una vez terminadas.

a. Toda la pesca ser4 llevada a esta terrinal, procesada y exportada para la
Unién Soviética y Evropa en mercantes rusog, sin oue se derive provecho algu
“no para Cuta y sin que los pesqueros cutanos puedan hacer uso de dichas ins~

_ talaciones.

Esta drea en Ja costa este del puerto de La Habana ser4 cerrada en cuanto se
7 terminen las instaleciones y sélo el personal soviético tendrd acceso a esta
zOnee
‘vs Este control absoluto soviético en el propio puerto de La Habana ha hecho
pensar a muchog que dichas-instalaciones no sélo servir4n para las cperacio-
-- nes de los "pescueros" rusos ~cuyas actividades de esrpionaje, infiltracién
. de apentes subvereivos y terroristas scn harto conocidas~ sino que pueden eg
ccnder construcciones militares, b>ses para submarinos y otras instalaciones
que amenecen la seguridad del Hemisferio.

Ad OPERATIONAL 1

1, During the roporting period AMSCROLL continued to function as
Station JMWAVE's MHVIPER action and propaganda vehicle, ‘Toward the
end of March AMSCROLL also assumed the bulk of the heirloom operation
which is now being taken over by a separate committee, Some of the
more Significant activities, which have boon covered in other
corrospondence, were "black list" lotters to specific firms in Japan
and Greece, sent at the behest of and according to guidance from
Tokyo and Athons Stations, AMBLEAK~l's “truth squad" tactics against
the Japanese trade mission touring Latin Amorica and the initiation
of regular reports to-Spanish officials, in a list provided by Madrid
Station, on the anti-Spanish contents of broadcasts from Havana by the

Cuban-Spanish Friendship Association,

_ 2¢ Although there were gome petty disagreemonts among AMSCROLL
persannel, reported in detail by our unilateral penetration, AMFRAME-1,

' there was relative calm during the period, and occasional manitostationp
ted in AMSCROLL despite the gencral flagging

of esprit de corps were no ;
_of morale in the exile community at large,

3. The only change in the AMSCROLL executive committee took
effect in March when the Secretary of Finance, Identity, resigned to

take a position in an Ecuadorian commercial firm, Other personnel
changes wore made with only minor significance,

Bocicty; “handwritten” cover letters, which are actually printed seript
to make the propaganda envelopes appear to contain personal lettors

. when put to the lixht test by-censors; and receipt acknowledyement forms,
a simple slip of paper now attached to al) propaganda mailings :
requesting the recipient to send the form back to AMSCROLL's post office
bex, ov to any other address in the free world fox forwarding to
AMSCROLL, as a check on how much propaganda is getting through, During
tho period AMSCROLL sent out 58,000 envelopes containing 130,000 items,

5, To Latin America primarily, with a scattering of items to
Europe, Asin and the United States, ANSCROLL sent out 30,000 items
indluding its tabloid house organ (which is now cut down to 4 pages
from its formor 8, and is published only once a month instead of twice),
several booklets reprinted by continued request of correspondonts (one
of tho largost orders having come from Dominican General Wessin y Wessi
shortly before the rebollion) and a map showing training sites in Cuba
for Latin Amorican guerrillas (samples in Attachment 3),

; 6. Nows releases Were issued on a number of current topics,
AMSCROLL as usual taking the economic warfare angle on the news of the
day as it effected Cuba, The 17 releases of this period were sent to
newspapers, wire services, magazines, radio and TV stations throughout
tho froec world in approximately 350 copies each, The local public
media mado use of approximately 65% of AMSCROLL's pross releases,
Although occasional indications are reocoived that AMSCROLL matorials
are used in other newspaper and magazine articles, radio programs and
the like, there is no way of making a good ostimato of tho amount of
such replay, Among tho more important titlos were tho following

(copies in Attachment 4):

a. Free-World Ships Continue Aid to Cuban Economy,

be Cuban Budget Includes Proof Economy Crumbling -~ an Analysish

ce. Possible Soviet Curtailment of Cuban Aid Seen

d. Greek Firm Bilked in Cuban Trado Negotiations

6. _ Japan Secks Expansion of LA Trade While Defying OAS in
Cuban Trafic .

2¢ Sovbloc Undermining Castro Sugar Markets |

g&» Castro Auctioning Heirlooms Taken from Fleeing Refugees

7. Other political action and propaganda moves noted in paragraph

“2 above, wore reported separately in detail, and a full set of
“black list" correspondence was forwardod to Headquarters in UFGA 21616
with a requést for any further MIVIPER lerds which might contribute to |

the further effectiveness of this campaign,

8, AMSCROLL radio programs, 15 minutes daily over both WMIE and
AMTHIGH, carried much the same themes as the AMSCROLL press releases,
but with adjustments as necessary for tho Cuban audience, e.g., while
AMSCROLL press releases might complain about continued froc-world
trade with and shipping to Cuba, the radio program would emphasize any

decreases in the number of ships,

9, Reactions to AMSCROLL propaganda continue to arrive from Cuba,
but at a slow pace, The 24 letters recoived during the past period
contained 7 newspaper clippings and three pages torn from telephone
books, as requosted in AMSCROLL radio programs, Nine of the letters
mentioned the AMTHIGH broadcasts, one noted receipt of the pony-sized
pulletin and two remitted the small acknowledgement forms which accompan
all AMSCROLL propaganda mailed into Cuba, Detailed statistics on these

are submitted in a separate report from JMWAVE,

A, OPERATIONAL _

1, During December there was considerable pressure on AMSCROLL
to join political groupings being formed by ex-Presidents Urrutia
‘and Pric, Fortunately, AMSCROLL was able to stay out of both without
incurring the wrath of either, ,

B. PRODUCTION

2. Although a number of new propaganda ideas were submitted by
AMSCROLL for approval, the only new item for Cuban consumption ‘
actually printed during the month was the pony bulletin, This and
other items already on hand, including 5,000 Christmas cards, totalled
47,000 pieces which were sent in 20,000 covers to Cuba, Another
10,000 items were distributed to Latin America and Spain, and 13,700
to addressees-in the U. S, Most of the two latter categories were
based ‘os’ requests from religious, social, and civic organizationBe
Samples of the items and a breakdown of the actual numbers of each
distributed are in the attached AMSCROLL Propaganda Section report,

3. AMSCROLL broadcasts continued as scheduled, Chief among the
themes, which also pervaded the two issues of the AMSCROLL house organ
published during the month and the above-mentioned pony bulletin for
Cuba, were as follows: :

a. The Congo in lurid detail with outrage at the Communist
hand behind the atrocities, and with scorn for the so-called neutralists
for their. attitude for the rescue mission, ANSCROLL editoralized that
except. for the canibalism, Congo tactics including ravage and wanton
murder are what brought Stalin, Tito, Mao, and Fidel to power,

b, AMSCROLL optimistically sees the start of a counter offen=
Sive apainst the rampages of Communism in Latin America, Examples
cited were Castello BDranco's action in Goaiz Province, Brazil;
Venezuclan Army operations in the Andes; Panamanian preparations to
control agitation on the anniversary of the Canal riots; Argentine
Forcign Minister Zavala'’s public denunciation of Sevict colonialism
in Cuba; Jagan's defent ot the polls in Guiana; and "Operation
Ayacucho," a seven--nation military maneuver against an “{maginary®
target which has Latin American Communists screaming "foul!"

ce. "Che" Guevara's statemonts before the UN and during his
telovision interview contrasted with quotations from previous speeches,
especially his current whining for trade openings with the U. S. as
opposed to past claims that U. S. sugar purchases kept Cuba in a state
of colonialism, Nuch'was mada of tho remark of the Nicaraguan dele-
gate to the UN that Guovara's address on behalf of Cuba was a Russian
speech with an Argentino accent, It was also noted that "Che" admitted
Cuba's support of the terrorism in Venezuela, -

d, Cuba's worsoning economic situation way as heretofore, a
constant theme, Featured this month wore the obvious failures of the
foraging trips of Carlos Rodriguez and "Cho" Guevara, and a host of
specific examples of matcrinl shortages admitted by Cuban public media.

e. The Martinez Sanchez suicide and the lack of precise detail
expecially in its aftermath, got considerablo attention in AMSCROLL
propaganda, along with other notes on GOC strife,

f, The Sino-Sovict rift was expected to continues accarding to

AMSCROLL, and the situation docs not bode well for Castro’s relations
Examples taken from press clippings,

g. The CTV boycott against free-world ships trading with Cuba
was favorably noted as another facet of tha tightening of the noose

around Fidel's neck,

h, End-of-year broadcasts centered on the decline of Comnunis
after a half century it still fails to improve the living standards of
the peoples enguifed, but instcad increases terror and oppression to
forge the populations into automatons for use in the realization of
its mad dream of world conquest,

4. Among letters received during the month was a request from
Palo Alto, California for a complete set of AMSCROLL publications for
the Hoover Institute's archives on world revolutions,

5. AMFRAME-1, who is now second man in the AMSCROLL Propaganda
Section by dint of his demonstrated imagination and initiative, came
up with a proposal during the month to test reaction to printed
materials being sent to Cuba, Implemented immediately, it consists
of a small coupon which accompanies cach item mailed to 15,000
addressees on a rotating basis each month, The total is divided into
four groups for sample purposes, each group being asked to respond to
requests for general, readily available information on the basis of
different stimuli, cither to have the respondent's code name announced
over the radio or just listed among the "many" others who are contri-
buting to the effort to overthrow the Castro regime, Theoretically,
the assistance would be more fully acknowledged after the liberation,
On the basis of results achieved during the first few months, the
system will be refined until the most successful method for testing

Cuban audience reaction is found, A report will be submitted when
sufficient returns are in, The AMSCROLL Propaganda Section report,

attached, contains further details and a sample of the coupon,

6. We were pleased to receive EGFA 43043 which credited AMSCROLL
propaganda with a minor MHVIPER score on a West German firm which was
doing business with Cuba, Evidently a number of free-world firms are
disturbed in the same way by AMSCROLL's vabre-rattling letters on the
pos: foaljt ° list. A report is being prepared analyzing

for Cuba showing how personal and family security are endangered more
by not doing anything than by taking whatever steps against the regime
are possible depending upon the opportunities which arisc; and a
leaflot for Latin American distribution showing on a map of Cuba the
reported sites for the training of terriorists. A new departure in
propaganda to Cuba will be tho printing of the backs of all future
leaflets in script form so that thoy will appear to be handwritten
letters if viewed through the envelopes. Heretofore AMSCROLL has
been onfolding other printed material in a simulated handwritten
wrappor, but now cach dtom will have its own “personal lottor" built
